Hello, currently I realised my game HDD is filled up and 30gb of storage is left. It is a 1tb @ 7200rpm drive and I reset it recently due to storage being very low. However it filled up very quickly once again but I have 200gb left and plan on buying RDR2 soon. Will I have enough and will it impact game performance/slow games down? FYI I have a windows drive on an SSD. Also please give me a budget 2 - 3tb drive which I can buy in the uk on amazon for less than 50£. Thanks in advance

Since your Windows isn't on a HDD, your games shouldn't be impacted at all, Loading Wise and FPS Wise. You can try finding a used 3TB HDD for the budget as well. And yeah should be enough, you require 150GB for RDR2 on a HDD.
