[@divinedragon88]

Thanks for the responses selohcin and Biyobi

[@GGBGameplays]

It's not about the sequential read/write speeds, it's more about random read/write speeds, and even SATA SDDs are very close to NVMe in random speeds, it relies in good controllers, DRAM cache, and things like that. Both SSDs are both much much faster than HDD, for example, it's 1MB/s for HDD and 30-50MB/s for SSD.

While I do use a pretty decent gen 4 nvme for gaming, I am never ever going to use it to store anything important on it. There's just way too many horror stories of them failing to keep things long term. That's why I'm still using my HDD for all personal and work related stuff. You can get insane amount of storage for less money and they really don't need much to last you a lifetime. I am so grateful to see case manufacturers still include HDD racks to this day!

[@P.W.R.]

Thats the best way to do it. Store important files on a HDD and use a SSD for gaming. That's what I have in my rig. All my important files are on a 8TB HDD and all my games are split across 3 SSDs.

For Gaming: Sata SSD and M.2 NVME has no real world difference. So you'll be fine with either of them. M.2 NVME shows it's true power/purpose only if you need to process or transfer large amounts of files. For loading Games, Textures etc. This won't matter. Conclusion: Still you should get M.2 NVME's as they are often the same in price with the Sata SSD one's but if you don't have a M.2 slot or you ran out. Buying Sata SSD is a fine alternative. Don't go HDD unless really needed (Like server PC's or sumthing)

Apex also does that when you update drivers or the game itself. Takes 3 minutes at times.

[@00Resev]

I have a suggestion for further testing on this topic. Its very interesting, and a real eye opener, but its also a rabbit hole into wonderland. Use a caching program (PrimoCache), and set an L1 caching task reserving some RAM (the more, the better), and associate it to the HDD. You can use any drive type (Even flash drives and SD cards.), but the most impressive and relevant results will come from HDDs, and Sata SSDs. The speeds you will get, even from the HDDs, will rival (or surpass) NVMe drives. At least in file transfers they do, i never tried it with games installed as i only use HDDs for external backup storage these days, but i don't see why it wouldn't greatly benefit game loading as well. I like it so much, that i bought a Primocache license. I bought 64Gb of RAM, of which i use half as L1 cache. And i even went a little crazy and also bought an Intel Optane M10 64Gb module, that i use as L2 caching. (Its overkill, but i really wanted to test one of these). I feed this setup into all my drives, permanent, or removable. For a "small" demonstration, here's a quick test i made, using a single run on CrystalDiskMark, on the Real World Performance profile (NVMe preset), with an almost full, external USB HDD, 5400rpm (Western Digital Elements). Here's the result: i.postimg.cc/FzdnnCtn/Crystal-Disk-Mark-20240509200931.png Compare it with your own drives, using the same settings. Mighty impressive as you can see.

I built an i7 6700K and an i7 9700K system that both had M.2 slots but continued to use SATA SSD. Since M.2 drives are dirt cheap these days, my upcoming 9800X3D build will definitely be using M.2 SSD just to save space on cabling.

[@zlibz4582]

a request to the admin of this channel , please start including frame time and frame pacing in the coming benchmarks with the new release of cpu, gpu, ram , storage in the upcoming year because these values are going to become more important as the frame per second will be high in all scenarios given that pc hardware has come a long way , 1 percent , 0.1 percent lows , frame time , frame pacing is what decides the actual user experience in games especially for online games , please highlight them because most people think only fps matters ........ gamers should become more educated .....

I designed a brand new computer last month. All the internal hardware and case is brand new. I have Windows 11 Pro on a Corsair m.2 2TB gen5 (PCI 5.0) nvme. And my games on a different storage drive same exact drive as my OS is on. Those two drives have direct CPU access. Every game I load at max settings. Such as Dead Island 2, Mortal Kombat 1 Reborn, Cyber Punk 2077, Robocop Rouge City, Diablo 4. I kid you not. All it takes for all those games is 3 seconds on the loading screen. And then the game is fully playable. And I tested Diablo 4 last night. It's one of the few games out. That uses Direct Storage where a pci 4 or 5 nmve qualifying drive like I have. Direct X 12 Ultimate with Shaders 6.0 (I have an MSI GeForce 4080 16GB Super video card that features that). It loads from the storage drive to the system RAM directly then to the GPU/Video RAM. It bypasses loading to the CPU. Diablo 4 loaded to play with this technology last night in 3 seconds I just had to wait. Make sure your drives for gaming have direct CPU access on the mainboard. I full disk encrypted my OS for a test. Using AES-NI encryption hardware acceleration built in on my AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D 16 core CPU. I encrypted 2TB in 13 minutes. I'm living in my glory with this PC.

advantage of HDD is a massive game library on the cheap and with easy optimization namely primocache and ram, or enabling disk cache with a mod any game can become fast like an ssd. this has been proven over and over even in ssd required games. load times after the first become fast and gameplay smooth. you just need the gpu and ram to do all the heavy lifting, storage is mattering alot less with direct storage and these programs. so long as we have modder and programmer support ill continue to use my 100tb worth of drives for games. if it ever ends ill just enjoy the old ones.

[@Denniz69]

For old games an HDD is okay but for newer games an SSD is an Game changer… I hate that 4-8 TB are sooooooo expensive

[@scottishgamer7210]

This year I got a Samsung 870 QVO 8 TB for £235

[@LusiTheCat]

Everyone has sata ports buy 2 or 3 4tb Hdd and use Raid 0 Even softwareraid will be on same speed as sata ssds for low

Nvme: It's worth it for those who work and NEED more data transfer speed, such as programmers, audio and video editing professionals, companies that need data transfers, 20...50...100gb... .servers and etc. SSD: Made for us, mere PC users focused on games and possibly some video editing (capcut). I was going to mention lives, but in this case it is a good CPU that allows you to do a good live at 1080 at 60fps (even if it is an HDD) The difference in performance between SSD and NVMe when loading or even turning on the PC is not worth the investment of 500 to 700 contos. I use a Kingston 480GB SSD with 120GB free full of stuff, and it's only taking 30s to turn on and enter Win. Then I get excited and buy an NVMe because I saw on YT that it's better, the PC turns on in 24 seconds... OK, what's up? I spent 600 contos just for that? Do we understand what I mean? Nvme has almost zero weight in fps gains, nvme will not improve graphics, it will just subtract a few seconds from loading times. And then I question you: Is it worth spending 600 contos just to feel this difference in charging? I don't think so. Nvme prices are not worth it for now, I would eliminate nvme as a priority on your home gaming PC, focusing on other more relevant components. The priority for a common user is: supply power motherboard CPU memoirs GPU SSD . . . . nvme

had 2 sshd they boot and perform like champ, almost like ssd, wd black not too far from sshd, hdd 5400rpm is just bad, raid0 hdd pretty good, raid0 ssd very impressive what ive never tried is intel optane

[@flavioxy]

lol i could read the data faster than the HDD xD joke aside, HDD are for storing a lot of data as they go up to 24TB, so there's still a good reason to use them, especially in NAS systems

[@Sergio-yk7wy]

Too bad games aren't optimized full for the faster ssds like on PS5

[@bingo2828]

И дело не только в загрузке . На HDD будут еще и статоры подтормаживание и еще много чего из за медленной скорости .

[@acid_flash]

Не сказал бы, что мои 2 HDD медленные, по 230 - 250 МБ/с. При должном уходе с ними нет проблем. Запись на дешёвый SSD 256 GB TLC происходит раз в 10 дольше 😆 (10 - 50 МБ/с), а быстрое только чтение (200 - 400 МБ/с). В основном ПК у меня NVME 970 Pro 1 TB MLC, если что (под систему и требовательные игры). 32 ГБ ОЗУ позволяют и с ЖД играть, без упора в подкачку.

[@lightest2385]

Me still on HDD💀 im finna upgrade today!

[@bayukurniawan4788]

HDDs' loading screens allow me to think about what Im doing with my life, so I prefer SSDs.

[@ABDZA313]

Both SATA SSD and NVMe are great of course not going with HDD for games but for a high storage for low price to save files in it is good, I would say the Hybrid Drive is good too but there's not a lot and famous and They're the same price of SATA SSD.

[@cannedmilk]

For a few extra seconds and for a lot less cash I’d take the SATA SSD.

[@sierra7534]

Do people still use HDDs?

[@gigighidon3413]

This video has 8 min because of HDD loading time 😁😁
