WD Black vs MX300

[IAR117]

I want storage that will last me the next few years and wil store many AAA games. In the UK the WD Black is cheaper by a bit, but is slower. Is it worth spending extra money on a smaller capacity, yet faster SSD?

if your really only going to use it to store games and simple stuff on it then go for the wd black.  pretty much all games today dont take advantage of the faster load times that an ssd gets you

No reason to get a the black drive. Id just get a cheaper segate or toshiba drive and call it a day. The perforamnce is abou the same.

yea but if we are gonna deal with a lot of aaa games then a lot of space is required and my wd blue which is slower has great performance

Would anyone recommend, from experience, buying a 240GB SSD? I'd put windows on it and use it for 2 years and then add a 2TB WD Black later. Would the 240GB hold up for 2 years of AAA games? I would only do this as I heard it's alot easier to install Windows on an SSD now rather than transfer it from a HDD to an SSD.
