Any point with installing windows 8.1 onto an SSD?

Is there any point having an SSD for windows 8.1, because I heard windows 8.1 boot times are really fast on a normal HDD anyway...

The boot/shutdown time, application loading, general usage and game loading will all be faster than having it installed on an HDD.

It's not just boot time. The whole system is faster.

Windows 8.1 boot times on a SSD are significantly better. I originally setup a new system with a hard disk and then cloned it to the SSD; it boots much faster. The main reason to get an SSD is to load applications faster; boot times are not that important if you use sleep mode.

What about if I used an SSHD?

Use a SSD and a hard disk.

SSHD is just an interim concept. A regular SSD and HDD is far better.
