Hi,
I am looking at one terabyte of HDD storage (Western digital, blue, 72000 rpm) and I'm also looking at an SSD (Samsung 850, 250 gigabyte). I'm looking to drop to a western digital 500 gigabytes, but I don't know if that's a good idea since I'm also using the SSD. Thoughts?

Really depends on how much storage you need. Usually the 1TB is a better deal. I personally have two 500GB samsung evos, one with a partition of 50GB for caching storage for HDD(s), You're looking at a price of 100-120 bucks, and from both an editing, and a gaming standpoint, it's a good thing to have an SSD
