I have already an SSD in which i have installed windows 10 and 2 HDDs that i use to download data and store photos and videos. I want to buy one more Disk but i don't know if it's better to buy SSD or HDD.
I wanted to buy 3TB+ but most HDDs have bad reviews. Some of them come with bad sectors, others with DOA, other die in 2,3 months of usage, and i don't understand why. Do SSD have better endurance over time, than HDD?
The HDD i was thinking to buy was the Toshiba P300 3TB, cause it has 7200rpm, although it has many bad reviews, like Seagate Barracuda. The least bad reviews has the Western Digital Blue, but it has only 5400rpm.
I will use it for torrenting, so i don't know what type of Disk do i need. Also, i guess the non stop torrenting highly affect the endurance of the Disk, right?
Also, is there an option to use the Disk whenever i want and not all the time when the computer is running?
I was thinking also of buying an 1TB SSD, but i my mobo doesn't support M2 slot and i guess its a bad buy to have a 2nd Sata SSD. Maybe when i upgrade my PC, then i should buy an M2 SSD. I wanted the SSD for installing games, cause my 1st SSD is only 256GB and it's already full..
So, what do you think?
