Q: Add SSD to Mac Early 2007?
I have an Mac Early 2007, 2 x 2.8 Quad, with 22GB RAM, OS 10.8.5. I use the computer primarily for work in Photoshop and Lightroom. It does an OK job, but I definitely experience wait times with some processes. I upped the RAM, and that seemed to help, but I wonder if changing the internal hard drive out for an SSD would produce any noticeable improvement in the system. I'd like to wait for the next generation of MacPro before I jump to a new system.
Any feedback would be appreciated.
Mac Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)

Yes, an SSD will speed up your Mac.
You can get an adopter so that you can use an SSD in one of the four HD sleds.
You can also get a PCLe cards that will accept a standard 2 1/2 inch SSD or a faster blade SSD
