Say I have two drives:
A) Samsung 850 PRO 512 GB 2.5 inch SATA III SSD
B) Samsung 960 PRO M.2-2280 512GB PCI Express 3.0 x4 NVMe SSD
and my intentions are to have one drive for OS and programs, and another for project files, scratch and media cache (on a 4k editing machine), which drive would I use for which purpose?
My current thinking is that boot-up speeds/loading times with an 850 Pro won’t actually be improved that much by a 960 Pro, so it makes sense to use the 960 Pro for data. The build also includes long-term storage with WD Blacks.
Many thanks in advance. This is my first post on this forum, so if I've not followed etiquette please let me know.
