Question with SSD & Flash Drive

[lcfz86]

I have abit question~

couse i got a budget with the SSD~

 

Question 1 : If i bought a SSD 120gb(Using for Operating System), then i install the games/software to another HDD                           (WD 1TB Black). Did my games/softwares will get a great performance?

 

Question 2 : About the flash drive, at the youtube some said can use to boost the ram/great speed up the pc, is it true?

First, yes, as the hard drive ONLY has to load the game, nothing else at the same time, so it does help.

 

question 2, only if you system has 1 gig of ram. flash memory is so slow hard drives are much faster, would not recommend doing this

The ReadyBoost is nominal.

 

Your games won't be faster on an HDD. But boot will be faster.

you install the OS and PROGRAMS on the SSD

the games go on the HDD

but if 1 computer got too many HDD is tht good?

 

now : 1st: WD 1TB Black with split out 500gb to Backup driver & Operating system

         2nd: Capture HDD (for capture games or others)

         3rd: WD 3TB External HDD ( for Backup or store some movies)

 

and can gv me some suggestion for the SSD brand good for gaming...

 

THX for suggestion~

Hi there @lcfz86!

 

1. Of course you can install any kind of apps on the secondary drive, but they will run at the normal HDD speed. This is the reason why some people install their programs, as well as the most used and demanding apps, on the SSD so they can take advantage of the fast loading times, and leave the games on the HDD since the only benefit you can get by running a game from an SSD is the fast loading times.

 

2. Yes, you can do that, and it's called ReadyBoost, but I would suggest to simply upgrade your system memory if you want to get a performance boost because it will be easier and more beneficial.

 

Lastly, there's nothing bad with having more than 1 or 2 hard drives in your system, and I also think that you have a pretty good configuration set up.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Cheers!
