SSD and a Hard Drive?

[Andrew_106]

Hello so i don't know much about computers and ive been told i need an SSD. Should i buy a hard drive and a SSD? I know a hard drive is need and im buying a 1 TB Hard Drive and i was looking at a 250GB SSD. Can the SSD be used just for booting OS? and will it make it faster? Am i able to use a Hard Drive and a SSD at the same time but make it so SSD boots windows and Hard drive stores everything else?

Yes, an SSD is good for OS and apps and a hard drive for bulk storage of pics and vids.

Can the SSD be used just for booting OS? and will it make it faster?

Yes you can use a small SSD (120GB) for the OS and it will be much faster

All you have to do is install the OS on the SSD and you can put whatever you want on the hard drive.
