online games: SSD (getting in there fast is an advantage)

other stuff: 2-4TB HDD, speed matters less otherwise, also lower $ per TB compared to 1TB HDD

Get a 4tb hdd, they are faster than 1tb ones, and also the price has come down so far that they are real cheap.

I only see your reply if you @ me.

An 1tb ssd is many times more expensive than a 4tb hdd. Also for your use case i dont see the point on the ssd.

Get a SSD if you think you will be doing loads of high demanding disk work (video editing etc). Get the 4tb hard drive if you think you're only going to store photos games blah blah.
