I am trying to build an audiophile PC and keep costs low. With 1tb HDD's under $90, I can store all the music I want.
Since the prices of some SSD's becoming reasonable (STT & OSZ under $150), I'm thinking about using an SSD for the boot drive -- low noise. Since there will be little input other than selecting the music, will the low write speeds be a problem? I can't afford any dropouts during play, but lag times between songs are fine.
Am I fishing in the wrong stream with considering an SSD? Or would the cheap MLC's work fine for this purpose?
Thanks in advance,
