hoofhearted4 Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 i think as far as SSDs go, they are extremely cheap. under $1/Gb right now, well under in some cases. i for on will include an SSD in every build i make. i have a 128gb, i do plan on putting a bigger one in there, either a 256gb or 480gb or something (also need to get a bigger HDD. my 1TB is almost full). we will see when the time comes, and when i do, my 128 will be going in my parents PC. they use like a total of like 60GB on their drive, so a 128gb will be more then enough. in fact, that is one of the best places i like it, for builds that dont use a lot of space (such as for the average consumer adult) a simple 128GB sub $100 SSD is perfect for them and all they need. and for anyone else a 128GB as their C: Drive is great, with an HDD for other files. however, where i wouldnt do this is for someone whos not very tech savvy and wouldnt have the know how (or whatever you wanna call it) to make sure they install programs on a partition other then C:. in my parents case, it wont matter because they wont fill it up. on a user where they have a lot of data and would need to put data on a separate drive (such as music and pictures) youd either need to get a bigger SSD (which can then be costly, and not worth it for that user) or just forgo the SSD all together.

hoofhearted4 Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 i would need more then a 500gb SSD if i wanted to install my Steam on it. my Steam folder is 500GB by itself. plus i have probably another 100GB+ in non Steam Games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
