Do you have money for a new drive?

Do you want a faster hard drive?

Do you want more storage?

 

If you've answered yes a quality SSD or even a faster HDD are options.  What laptop are you looking at?  How expandable is it's storage?

If you have a PC, I would strongly recommend a desktop hard drive, as they still aren't very expensive, and you can get a 1TB hard drive for only about CAD$50, which in my opinion, is a pretty good price.

Are you saying the DESKTOP pc you want to buy has a LAPTOP HDD?  If that's the case get a 2TB HDD and use that 240GB SSD as your boot drive.

Please don't short yourself on hardware that will last longer than either of those games.

 

You can pick up a Seagate - Barracuda 2 TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive for less than 60.

Have you seen games these days?  They take up huge amount of space.  And a HDD for data is super cheap.
