Now if only the prices would fall to a sensible level, so I could upgrade these sluggish as fuck externals to glorious SSD masterrace.

>Mfw now running my games off a WD SSD after having them on a normal HD

This is glorious.

Meh, nothing spectacular. I was running before that two 10000rpm HDDs in RAID0.

It's great but when it gets around 99% full the speed bonus is lost, sadly this happens when you don't (and can't) defrag.

Go to hell.

I'm looking everywhere for a 1TB 7mm 7200rpm drive and they basically don't exist.
Are SSDs the reason?

>2017
>No 1TB SSD under 200€
No reason to upgrade

Stop bullshitting. I had one 10k Velicoraptor and shit was loud and had lag.

Maybe your PC is shit, mine is a 3770k and 32GB DDR3-2000 Trident. With that HDD boot time was less than 10 seconds. And definitely nothing loud.

Problem?

im surprised sata splitters dont exsist

It's time for you to leave, user.

I've had my 1TB SSD for nearly 3 years now.
If I needed any more space I'd already be rolling with a 4TB one.

please enlightenment me, anonymous shitposter.

feels great

Kingston uv400 2X240gb.

>come bro lets race
>whoever copies call of dooty first will have to suck other

my first ssd was a 64gb kingston

i shoved into my asus laptop and installed kubuntu x64 on a live cd on jet flight from Brisbane to Perth sometime in late 2010 and used the rest of the battery to bang together a conky script

>installing linux onto a SSD while flying through the air

yep could say i felt pretty smug that day ;)

>i shoved into my asus

Ummm I'm referring to back in the year 2008 or a little before. I bought my first SSD in 2010.

> tfw OZC drive
> tfw still running 7 years later

And I'm talking about a HDD from 2012-2013 on that PC vs an SSD on the same PC. Not impressed with the SSD vs that particular HDD.

I was looking for SSDs for my GNU/Linux.
They suck with full disk encryption.
Since you have to overwrite disk with random data before encryption, you slow down disk a lot.
You cannot use TRIM since it leaks data outside encrypted area.
Everything including creating partitions is problematic.
I will stick to my HDD, at least it has the size to hold multiple OS, torrents, and "just werks".

>being this retarded

are you fucking cucking me boi?

>being new
enjoy your first day.

u fkin nigger, my first ssds was one of those, was kill two times, had to set up systems two times in a row, then kill again, didn't use SSDs for a few years after that

...

Works on my machine

Yes. Mine are RAID 0.

Those boot up/resume times on my 2012 laptop

i was afraid of writing useless shit to it for a couple years

now i flog the bastard

>mfw first boot off of 850 evo

...

...

mine too

Well shit.
I have heard that larger capacity SSD's are faster by default. But by that much can't be correct here. Even stripping size shouldn't pay that much to it. If anything only really affect 4k.

Here's my build. You sure you have the ones in the matted aluminum cases?

Weird. Mine takes no time at all.

Are there any real (i.e. noticeable) gains with m.2 NVMe vs SATA3 SSD? My computer already boots fast enough that getting into the bios is impossible without getting into it from windows

Are you actually this retarded? Do you get mad when your 650w psu doesn't deliver 650w at all times?

If you're asking this question nvme is not needed for you. A sata 3 is plenty good since you're just a casual user

>you're just a casual user
pretty much. I don't care for video creation or other shit. All I really do I post on 4chinz, watch anime, and play vidya

nehelam was pcie2. Ssd still work great on sata 2. Usb3 pcie cards are probably good enough for you. Your old pc still has life in it with cheap upgrades.

...

...

you're a fucking MORON

...

>Are there any real (i.e. noticeable) gains with m.2 NVMe vs SATA3 SSD?
Slightly. Unless you save raw data. You're limited to CPU power unpacking data after a good SSD/RAID 0 of two SSD's.

>have to stand up to turn pc on
>not using toes

You sure showed him, newfriend :^)

>mfw
I was rocking HDDs until 2012, then bought a 128GB Samsung 830, because they were shilled hard on Sup Forums at the time.

I'm still using it and never had any problem with it. Sitting comfy at 7TB writes.

>using the smiley with a carat nose

>defragging ssd

Does SSDs affect game perfomance?

Just load times

Glad I'm not the only one who read it as "anus".

That's the worst looking pizza I've ever seen.
Admittedly I haven't seen many, but that's still a pretty shit job.

most games will load stuff while playing, so in the long run it might help with stuttering.

>changing the lighting on before/after pictures
fuck people who do this
fuck them to death

SSDs are a meme

Can anyone recommend a good SSD with at least 100gb for under $200?

The closer I can get to $100, the less my wallet is going to cry.

Thanking anyone who can help in advance.

...

SSDs are a meme because no one turns off their system anymore.

t. 300 days uptime on arch

>falling for the SSDs are a meme meme

What's a good 500 gb SSD to get lads?

Is it worth getting a SSD if I don't feel like reinstalling my OS onto it? I don't care about boot times, but general system performance is still important.

No. Your OS will prefetch commonly used files in advance and there will be no noticable improvement.

1. you can simply copy your OS root partition on it with any partitioner software
2. even if you don't and you have HDD operate heavy applications or games, it does worth it.

Are SSD's ever going to fall to a reasonable level?

Yes, years ago.

>mfw I have no ssd

Can't remember it was a decade ago

damn, I guess my summer spending budget gets a little bit less strained in that case

>Which of my games get SSD-precedence?

Only 128GB but it was £30 or something second hand.

The games you play the most

>tfw boot time falled to 4 seconds

I know that, you silly, that was just my initial reaction.

What's better? PCIe or M.2 for SSD add in cards? Just curious

SAS

mfw i cant trust ssd with long term cold storage because the electrons in the dye will fade

your retarded

pcie x16 is more bandwidth but less secure to bus injection

...

My first SSD was with a gigabyte sandybridge board so it still took twenty minutes to boot through the fuckin post screen anyway...

>6gb/s
gb is a gigabit. GB is a gigabyte. GiB is a gibibyte. 6 gb/s equates to 750 MB/s, which you won't ever either because that's a theoretical threshold for transfer speed because your drives need some overhead, otherwise they'd be making errors all day long if they could operate at their maximum theoretical speeds.
