Hey im looking for the best storage solution for my budget gaming rig , i have an old 500gb 5400rpm laptop hard drive, here's the problem there's two paths i can choose first one is buying a cheap SSD for os and some core programs and using my 500gb laptop hard drive for storage, or the second path that's buying a new 1TB 7200 rpm hard drive, Which configuration will work more effectively ? any other suggestions are well received, my hard drive budget is around $65 usd dollars.
Here's a list of of the parts im taking in consideration:
SSD:
MyDigitalSSD 240GB (256GB) BP5e Slim 7 Series 7mm 2.5" SATA III (6G) SSD Solid State Drive - MDS7-BP5e-0256G
Looks like a speedy budget ssd with a good amount of storage, im a bit concerned about quality tho.(im adding amazon links for in depth product specifications)

Mechanical Drive:
Western Digital 1TB SATA 7200 Rpm 64MB 3.5in 6GB/S, Color Caviar Blue
This one looks like a solid pick for a mechanical Hard drive.
