    No.
    You can either afford going all SSD, or you can afford a smaller SSD and a separate HDD.
    Worst case scenario just buy a good quality HDD.
     
    Only reason to ever buy an SSHD is if you have a laptop with only one 2.5" drive bay and can't afford a large enough SSD for your files.

    I wouldn't bother with a hybrid drive. Your os will already cache the hdd, and if you really want faster id just get a big ssd.

    I might use this build, but I might use a 120 GB SSD and then later get a 1 TB hard drive

    Gotta have an SSD though. It's easier to drop $40 on a hard drive later rather than reinstall Windows on your SSD in a few months.

    Seems good for a homework build, but do not get the ddr4 1030 just to save some money

    This is great for typing essays, thats about it. You should be looking at a ryzen 3 2200G for your CPU.

    The ancient AMD CPU and motherboard you're putting on it are a rancid value. Please save and get an athlon 200GE, a B350 motherboard, and some DDR4.
