In general my experience has been that SSD drives give you a significant performance boost. I replaced the rotational drive in my now 7 year old Macbook Pro a couple of years ago and a lot of my thumb twiddling time went away. Not quite an apples to apples (pun intended) comparison but I think it's money well spent.
My other thought was "take the RPM drive savings and upgrade the RAM to 16 GB." ???
