Hi all,
I'm looking to build a new machine primarily for photo/music/movie storage and simple office work (remotely connecting to a work computer, internet browsing, Office).
Here's the specs I've come up with so far. My thought was to run just the OS on the SSD and anything else on the Seagate. Not sure if that would be worth the extra cost. If possible, I'd like to get the price down lower. Any recommendations? Thanks!
