SSHD vs SSD

[LittleKid]

Hi Everyone

For my upcoming build I was planning on getting a Samsung EVO 840 (not pro) 120 GB drive, But now I was just reading about SSHD's and I've never used either of them so I was wondering if someone could tell me which is a good option as right now I only have 160 GB HHD and a 1 TB HHD both of them are quite full but still ok, I was planning on getting a SSD and keep all my poop on the other drives but now that I saw the SSHD I am a bit confused on which to get because with SSD I was not going to get another HHD so what do you guys think in speed wise obviously the SSD will be better but then I am looking at cost here too, I'm ready to sacrifice a bit of speed for the money and storage I get with the SSD

 

The other question I had was, I am planning to get  Windows 8.1 Pro, so say for example I get the SSHD and then in the Future I plan on getting a SSD how easy is it to move my OS on the SSD from the SSHD

 

All responses Welcome  

 

Kind Regards

SSD all the way! Most of them come with software to transfer your OS.

You should get the SSD..

SSHDs are a cool concept, however I would never go with one over an ssd also its fairly easy to move an OS to an SSD most come with software to do it

I've got an SSHD in my LAN system, it's actually really awesome, Windows 8.1 boots up literally INSTANTLY. Downside is that it is a 5400rpm HDD which is super slow for games that I don't use often.

But to start of with, would you recommend an SSHD? and then in the Future get a SSD?
