i was wondering if it is worth me getting a 1tb HDD for all my files and games and a 64Gb SSD for my boot files?

 

is it worth doing this or should i just stick to the Tb HDD???

 

cheers :)

Get a SSD ! It is definitely worth it. Programs that are on the SSD will start much much quicker.

Sorry if my English is not perfect, but it isn't my native language :)

Getting a ssd is definitely worth it, and you will see a massive increase in speed for both boot up times, and programs in general.

so if i was to just put my OS on the SSD and Maybe main programs/games i used then used the HDD for usual rubbish, it'd be worth the little extra?

Yes, it will definitely be worth it. If it all possible with your budget, it would probably be a good idea to get a 128 gb ssd, it is a good baseline size, and as soon as you experience the speed of an ssd, you will want more.
