So the numbers are in:
Old Toshiba HDD: 87MB read, 77MB Write
Samsung 860 Evo: 523MB read, 519MB Write.
Holy crap.

The thought of using an HDD these days makes me sick to my stomach. Has for quite some time.

@Legendarypoet I never really paid attention until I found Windows loading significantly slower in the beginning of February. As soon as I installed it, I was like wtf was I waiting for... LOL.

@dizmo Sorry, I don't have any barf bags left over, but I hope you're proud of my choice to finally get an SSD, lol
-
Ahh, I remember going from a mechanical drive to an SSD. I just got two more SSDs for free today. (also @Legendarypoet you don't have to send me any if you get old spare ones if you ever did again)
-
@Legendarypoet What, going to an SSD? No, that was in 2016.

@bob51zhang That's surprising, considering I bought this laptop as a refurb model instead of brand new. I'm thinking it was faster at one point but they just never bothered to switch out the HDD... Or they did but gave me a crappy one.
