Get the NVME. They are so much faster than HDD’s, up to like 400% faster. This will boot up faster, download games faster, and pretty much everything file transfer will be faster.

MY PC:

Ryzen 9 3900X 12 Core PBO Enabled

ASUS RTX 4070 DUAL OC 

Asus Prime x570 Pro Motherboard

Kingston Fury Beast 128GB RAM 4 Slots

Fractal Design Case

EVGA 80+ Gold 800W PSU

I'm thinking about getting 2 nvme SSD: one is 2TB, and the other is for secondary use with 4TB. Thoughts? I rather move on from HDD due to file access delay being annoying to me. For 2.5 SSD, I'm not quite sure.

 

My current PC has a total of 4TB: 2 SSD and 2 HDD.

You already have several drives, are any of them NVME?

My current PC doesn't have nvme, only 2.5 SSD and HDD. The nvme WILL be my next brand new PC build

Get cheapest NVME for 4TB storage, if it's just games it won't really do too much harm being cheapest.

 

2TB on the other hand, slightly better, since you want windows.


Or you can just get single decent 4TB drive for Windows + other, and use the other drives, and use important games/files on NVME.

Unless there's a good reason not to... nvme drives. 
If you have an older system it might not be worth setting up an nvme drive as a boot drive over a SATA drive. 
With that said for secondary storage PCIe to nvme adapters are as low as $5. 

5900XT (16C/32T) | 64 GB DDR4 RAM | RTX 5070 

1.5TB Optane P4800X | 16TB nvme SSD NAS w/ 10Gbe & 96GB DDR5 RAM caching
LG C4 + QN90A | Sony AZ7000ES | Polk R200+R100, ELAC OW4.2, SVS PB12-NSD + 3x SB1000 | HD800
