2.5" SSDs max at 550 MB/s -- depending on which OWC drive you bought, although for 2.5" SSDs the Neptune is by far and away their best bang for the buck, other options seem overkill.
m.2 drives can go much much much faster http://barefeats.com/hard225.html
Not cheap, but if you are really looking for speed, its the best option. Maybe shop around vs only OWC.
Personally, I wouldnt worry about old system stuff. the likelyhood of a "corrupt" prefs files is really small.
Any chance you can just start from scratch? These days, no DVDs of software are needed, just download everything from the app store.
