Hello im thinking of getting a Samsung 840 Pro 256GB SSD (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820147193) I already have I believe a Crucial M4 128GB SSD I was wondering if I buy this new card is it worth it because I want to have my games on my SSD. For instance World of Warcraft, Steam Games, Battlfield 3. Also Will I have enough space in the 256GB to run all those games or will I run out of space. I also have a 1.5TB HDD but it never fills up thats what im running my games on now and my OS is on my Crucial M4 SSD.
Sincerely, Andrew Anderson

It would depend on how many steam games you have that you want installed on the SSD. You could fit Windows, WoW, and BF3 on the 128 GB SSD.

The only advantage an SSD grants in gaming is shorter loading screen times so some games you could leave on the 1.5 TB HDD.

One more questions some people said that you want to have your games on your drive that has the OS because of directX and other stuff that help games is that true. Or will having my steam games on 120GB Be fine?
