Posted April 18, 2017 Hi, i have a laptop with 120gb m.2 sata ssd as os(:C) and a 500gb 5400rpm slow toshiba hdd(:D) as secondary drive. The old drives often cause fps spikes in open world games(GTAV) and sometimes in NFS2015 the world just went black because of the slow read speeds. (i guess?) I want to get the seagate firecuda drive to replace the slow secondary drive. Q1. will changing it to the firecuda sshd can help me? (for all the shutters) Q2. If I get the firecuda and a external 2.5" enclosure bay, how do I clone the old drive to new drive? I have lots of programs and application in that (:D) drive. I dont think I can just copy and paste it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted April 18, 2017 Just get a WB blue or a regular barracuda. The SSHD is only good for windows and you wont see any performance improvements in games. EaseUS is free and can be used to transfer the files over. QUOTE/TAG ME WHEN RESPONDING Please Spend As Much Time Writing Your Question As You Want Me To Spend Responding To It.

My barracuda averages about 200MB/s read(megabytes, not bits). it runs GTA V smoothly w/o stutter. of course its 7200RPM so try to grab a drive that is that speed QUOTE/TAG ME WHEN RESPONDING Please Spend As Much Time Writing Your Question As You Want Me To Spend Responding To It.
