          I’m finally thinking of getting one, I’m just not sure if it’s worth the time to transfer a bunch of stuff from my old 1TB plug-in SSD.

            Most all NVME come with a data migration software. If you are worried about complexity I would recommend a Samsung as their software is the best and very easy to use.

    still use a hdd to store movies, tv shows, music, video game clips, ISO files, ROMS and pictures from my phone, hdd’s are still great in 2023 for things besides from operating systems programs or games, and they are cheap too

      …good for games too, especially huge-ass ones. mechanical drives are cheap af.
      while ssds are faster, difference in loading times and tile pop-in is rarely significant enough… unless you’re playing a heavily modded game (and especially if it’s Minecraft, you need an ssd unless you want to spend 40 minutes on the loading screen)

        yeah 100%

        older games or more simple ones work just fine on hdds, but of course ssds give you better loading times most of the time

      No problem! I did what I could to protest. They dared to take down my Infinity. Not going back. I hope Lemmy will grow steadily. This is kinda like Fibonacci Sequence, it will go boom at one point (hopefully). :)
