+Fahim S. MVC Posted October 9, 2013 MVC Share Posted October 9, 2013 Speaking of Crucial M500 in the UK the price per gigabyte is: 120GB 65p/GB 240GB 58p/GB 480GB 54p/GB 960GB 47p/GB So yes, if you need that sort of capacity, speed and silence. It's certainly better than buying 2x480GB, 4x240GB or 8x120GB! Brian M. 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mindovermaster Moderator Posted October 9, 2013 Moderator Share Posted October 9, 2013 Why does anybody need that? That's just overkill. Get 128GB SSD and a 1-2TB HDDs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spaceelf Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 Why does anybody need that? That's just overkill. Get 128GB SSD and a 1-2TB HDDs. I've got a 256 and a 180, had a 64 as well but moved it to moms box. I wouldn't mind another but don't feel the need right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsupersonic Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 It's still not price efficient to buy such a large SSD. It's cheaper to have a SSD boot/app drive, complemented with hard drives for data storage. I'm in the process of going SSD's only in my desktop, and moving all my data to the NAS. I have a 256 GB boot/app drive, 80 GB drive for Steam/games (will be replaced with a 256 GB SSD), and then all my data is moving to the NAS. I'll probably repurpose the 80GB for music/misc. storage.

Jason S. Global Moderator Posted October 9, 2013 Global Moderator Share Posted October 9, 2013 instead of saying a 900GB+ SSD isnt worth it, perhaps we should ask what the main purpose of the drive is. fusi0n 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
francescob Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 instead of saying a 900GB+ SSD isnt worth it, perhaps we should ask what the main purpose of the drive is. SSDs and RAM Drives = the best place for swap files! ever! :s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
