If you're already using WPA-PSK, you're good to go so long as the PSK is random and complex enough. SSID hiding is harmful to your laptop because it forces your laptop to probe for the hidden SSID every 60 seconds and that happens whenever your notebook is turned on where ever you go. SSID beacon suppression on the AP is worthless anyways.
