Anyone playing NCAA 13 with a SSD drive on PS3?

Just curious if anyone is using a SSD drive with NCAA Football 13 on PS3. If you are, do you notice a difference in game play speed? Do the menus load quicker? I've read a lot of articles on SSD performance on PS3's and most people say that there's not a difference. However, my guess is that EA probably uses the hard drive often in their games and I wouldn't be surprised if there were at least minimal gains.

The game doesn't install to the HD on PS3 unless you bought it from the PSN. Unless you plan on buying it from there, I wouldn't expect any gains.

Some games using the hard drive to make up for the lack of RAM (think virtual memory on your PC). Here's a comparison that shows Skyrim running on an SSD compared to a hard drive:

Definitely an interesting article...less about load times & more about laggy play.
