HawkMan Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Yeah, but my approach allows steam to continue to update the games whilst leaving them on my SSD. I leave DotA2 on my SSD indefinitely. It only gets moved back to my HDD when I am about to format my PC. Then I rinse and repeat. It essentially allows me to keep my steam library installed and up to date and to pick and choose which apps get SSD boosts >.< I usually just use a separate Steam library for the always SSD games since steam supports multiple libraries now.

Odom Member Posted June 2, 2014 Member Share Posted June 2, 2014 If you have the space, put on the SSD everything you want to be faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gohpep Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 I have games that I use a lot on my SSD, hasn't died yet after 1 year of (ab)use. Everything else is on a HDD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spaceelf Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 SSD for things I play often, HD for everything else. HDs can be friggin painful for some games. Aside from this one, my SSDs are currently off in other systems for one reason or another :huh: so I really should get another one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
game_over Posted June 2, 2014 Author Share Posted June 2, 2014 I guess it's just personal preference then? thanks for the input. I think i'll go with: SSD for games i play often and HHD for everything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsupersonic Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 256 Samsung 840 Pro (OS + Apps) 80 GB Intel 330 (Steam install + Games) 128 GB Samsung 840 Pro (Additional Steam library drive) 1 TB WD Blue (Data) I'm planning to replace the 80 + 128 GB with a 512 GB SSD in the future. I'm looking to go truly HDD less in my desktop, so I'll probably add another 512 GB SSD for data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
