Hello hello,
Just updated the RAM. Not sure about the SSD, should I go for more storage?
Thanks for all the help again 🙂
@so0307 In your position, if the extra cost wasn't a problem, I'd go with the 1 TB SSD rather than 500 GB. It's a cheap upgrade, and your motherboard only has one M.2 slot, meaning you couldn't add a second one of these drives. A SATA SSD is fast enough for most tasks, including running Sims 4; this is more about maximizing the usage of that faster M.2 connection, which uses PCIe lanes rather than a SATA port. (That's the 6x increase in speed I mentioned before.) Plus, it pushes the need for a storage upgrade further down the line, if you ever need it at all.
Still, if you don't want to spend the extra money now, it's perfectly fine to stick with the 500 GB drive. You'll have more than enough storage now, and the motherboard has plenty of SATA ports if and when you're ready to add another drive.
- @puzzlezaddict Hi, not sure I understand everything but I don't want to take any more of your time so I will try to figure the SDD out myself. Just wanted to say thank you one more time, you have no idea how much you've helped!!
Wishing you all the best and if you have a tipee or anything similar please share it! @so0307 If you do have more questions about SSDs, I'd be happy to answer them. But the main question for you is whether you want 1 TB of storage now for a small price increase, or you're fine with 500 GB now and adding a second, slower drive later.
