Im in need of some sort of storage for the Cassette Deck, i have two SSDs in the toaster right now, and NVME M.2 one and a Kingstron A400 120gb one. The OS of the toaster is on the A400 along with most of the games and programs because i let a friend borrow it during a LAN and didnt defult the Steam library to the HDD. Anyway the Cassette Deck dosnt have an M.2 slot on it, and needs an SSD so should i use the one from the toaster or buy another A400 120gb disk for €25?

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

You could buy another one. They're getting really good on prices, but since you have a, presumingly good,  NVME. I would look for a M.2 PCIe to PCIe adapter, if you have a PCIe slot available. If the adapter costs too much compared to a new SSD, then it would make sense to buy another SSD.

actiually ended up doing something entirely diffrent, i nabbed the 2.5" HDD from my NAS. Finally swapped over to the new NAS and apropriatly enough put a Seagate 1TB HDD in the new NAS instead of the old 2.5" one. Quite the speed upgrade and a much smaller and quieter NAS :) This way i didnt have to spend any money unless it turns out the 2.5" HDD is too slow to run Linux. 

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...
