Hello,
Should I use SSD with my Shadowplay, or should I use HDD?
I can get 4x TB HDD for the price of 1 TB SSD
I save shadowplay files Often (in TB sizes..), and If I use 1 TB SSD it will likely be filled within months. ( I already got like above 2TB shadowplay files)
I heard that HDD is kinda better for Shadowplay as the performance is the same with SSD, and SSD would wear out quicker if Shadowplay was constantly saving/deleting on it. is that true?
I get that SSDs are quicker for overall applications, so those 4 TB will likely be only used for Shadowplay files as I have Terrabytes worth of video clips and 1 TB SSD feels like nothing.
Question:
These are my drives, F is currently almost full constantly having to clear it off. (F is a HDD been using it to save shadowplay files).
If I use shadowplay on D/E/G those 400-500GB will be filled in a month to the max, so it's not a solution.
J will soon be filled with a lot of game installs, so there won't be enough for Shadowplay.
Thank you.

Question:
- If I'm only going to be using those 4TB HDD for storages like saving/deleting shadowplay videos, and overall using it as storage for photos and whatnot.. would that slow down my shadowplay performance by any way? or FPS in games?
- I still have my shadowplay's Temporary files set to C: which is a M.2 NVMe should I keep it like that for better performance?
