SSD & HDD

[Abdallah Al Manmud]

So, I’m wondering to upgrade my storages. Saw a bunch of videos but I’m still confused! What’s the importance of bigger cache in HDD? And all the videos I saw everyone said WD Black is the best HDD. And for SSD, should I put my money on a 1 TB Samsung 860 Evo or should I get an nvme? And which Nvme would be the fastest and long lasting?

The bigger the cache means the more data that was recently used can be re-accessed without the HDD pulling the data from wherever its at on the drive. It just makes things a little faster. Example: if I open up a document and then close it then want to open it up again it will open up faster if its still in cache because the HDD doesn't have to search for it. WD Black is the best HDD because it packs a lot of features which is also why it's more expensive. I don't have a WD Black HDD so I don't really know all the features but the most notable one that I know is that it has anti-shock and vibration security measures. Regular HDDs can break or become damaged if moved around while the disk is being read or written to. From my understanding NVMe is faster than SATA/NAND but I don't really know a lot about it.
