I hear you. I'm worried about cracking the case. There are four plastic clips that hold it together that aren't really meant to be removed, but apparently can be done relatively easily if one is careful. That said, I have a bad history with things that "can be done, if done carefully."

But basically you just image a back-up of your system (you just need a 4 GB SD or USB), then swap the drive, then boot off the back-up, and you have your original system good to go but with more storage. Then you can install Crouton direct to your SSD and get a big speed benefit. Not bad for $55!

I can't really speak to the difference in speed class as I only tried it with the card I have, but it ran well. I think with the price you may as well get a fast card. Here's what I'm using, I got it for $17 on sale but its still only $22 right now:
