SSD Upgrade? Is it worth it?

[Punterino]

So I'm currently using my laptop with 1tb hdd+ 16 gb optane, I'm planning on upgrading to 1 tb of sata SSD and changing the optane to 256 gb M.2 NVME SSD, do you guys think the upgrade is worth it, if i upgrade, will it makes a huge difference?

While Optane cache (or tiered storage?) does improve things in my opinion moving to even SATA SSD for bulk storage is going to improve the quality of life.

 

Personally I am using NVMe only, but I guess that may be pricey.
