Go to solution Solved by Wufflez,

im probably only looking ssd for OS mainly dont need to replace the hdd as i would just format the one whit os in it and start using it as storage like my other hdd is doing

120GB Samsung 850 EVO. There's no competition for the price/performance with this SSD.

how much capacity do you want if you're replacing HDDs with them

Samsung 850 EVO is your best SSD right now without spending too much. Either 120GB for OS and programs, or 256GB if you need some playroom. I'd get an OS drive and leave it at that personally, though.

yeah that's what im doing i dont really mind long loading screens in games but when my os starts to become slow i will go insane
