what memory is necessary

[Dilen futch]

on a custom pc i am building i have a 4tb HDD and a 1tb SSD is the SSD necessary or?

Sounds like a high end build. An SSD is a must imo. You could get a 500 GB if you want.

For anything other than extremely tight budget builds, an SSD is a necessity for me. Whether a Terabyte is needed depends on your use for the system. For the OS and a few programs, 1TB is overkill. If you're going to be using it for working on files that need to be accessed quickly, like editing, I would actually recommend getting two 500GB SSDs instead. One for the OS and programs and the other for the files you're working on. It helps prevent the OS drive from being bogged down if you're transferring a lot and doesn't use up the write cycles of the OS drive.

SSD's aren't necessary per say , but they do make your system considerably more responsive for day to day use, compared to an HDD only system .

 

They are certainly worth it .
