so for gaming needs like mine, getting ssd is not that worth? how about getting hybrid instead?
Look at the difference in cost per GB then factor in the speed increase of the SSD.
500GB Samsung 840 EVO = $259 / 500GB = $1.04 / GB
256GB Crucial M550 = $159 / 256GB = $0.62 / GB
256GB Crucial M550 + 1TB Seagate Barracuda = $159 + $59 / 256 + 1000 = $0.17 / GB
1TB Seagate Hybrid Drive = $163 / 1008 GB = $0.16
1TB Seagate 7200 RPM Drive = $59 / 1000 = $0.06 / GB
It's about even but you do come out ahead buying the SSD + the 1TB hard drive.
sorry im a bit confused on the computations. kindly separate them distinctly. thanks
OK:
1. High capacity solid state drive
2. Medium capacity solid state drive
3. Medium capacity solid state drive + 1TB mechanical hard drive
4. 1TB hybrid SSD / mechanical HD
5. Standard mechanical HD
The Crucial M550, Samsung 840 Evo, and OCZ Vertex 460 are currently the best SSDs you can buy right now in terms of cost per GB, performance, and specifications.
