I'm building my first high end PC with gaming in mind and I wanted to ask the good people on here for some advice:
Basically I want both my Operating System and the games I install on a SSD. Initially my idea was to buy 2 Samsung 840 Pro 128GB drives and have my OS and games on separate drives, but would I be better off using just one 256GB 840 Pro and installing the OS & Games on separate partitions?
I'm just wondering because I know the life of a SSD is dependent on how often you write to it. Would having a gaming directory on a OS drive shorten the lifespan of my drive in comparison to two independent drives?
