It's only going to improve the time it takes to load games. If you want to save money, get a cheaper SSD or an HDD.

Yeah i’d use a small (250GB) SSD for windows and a 1-2TB 7200RPM HDD for games if it were me.

Definitely SSD. Way faster and more reliable than a HDD. Go with a Crucial mx500 or a Samsung 970 evo.

This too, crucial has really affordable SSD’s and they are usually pretty good quality.

Yeah I have a Crucial mx500 in my system and it works beautifully. Got it for a good price too

Define that please, that can mean very different things to different people

For best of both worlds consider a 2.5" Seagate Firecuda, I use a 2TB variant for games storage in my main system, and a in another system as well.
