If you don't have a use for it now, then economically it is better to sell it and put that money into your new laptop next year. Say at the moment it is worth $250, then next year it may only be worth $100. However next year you could potentially buy a way better SSD for $250 than the one you have now, or as you said get a much better laptop.
