Try to come back in a few hours. It's 4 AM in the East cost, so most forum members are asleep right now.

 

Most people are active at night or in the evening in the US and Canada. Try to find when that is, and then post around that time for the maximum amount of replies.

 

Good luck

 

Prob should be going to sleep....

Only a small SSD but enough for the OS and a few games, plus you can always add a second HDD whenever you wanted.
