What other drives are in this system?

 

[DanijelPeder]

I have NVMe or M.2 idk if it's the same but it's basically in my mobo and it's 500 GB but it's full

OK then...WD BLue, WD Black, Seagate Baracuda.

Or...a 1-2TB SATA III SSD.

Yea was considering one of those but then I saw FireCuda which is SSHD and I don't know whats the point of that drive?

In 2020, for a game drive, there IS no point to it.

So i'm just better off going with seagate barracuda since it's the cheapest of the above you wrote. Thanks

If you play something regularly, it should in theory start loading faster. But trying to game the caching algorithm of an SSHD is likely not worth the effort.

Ye I decided to go for the seagate barracuda 2 tb, thanks
