Should i get....

2TB 7200 RPM SATA Hard Drive (with) 16GB mSATA SSD Cache
or
256GB Solid state drive (with a sorage 2TB 7200 RPM SATA Hard Drive )

Is there a big difference in the speed of working with and opening photoshop documents, jumping around from program to program?


Getting a new computer primarily because I'm running out of Ram (with 8GB) while working. But I'd like things to work quickly as well.

I'm a web designer that works with large image files in PHOTOSHOP manipulating them are sometimes taxing on the processor. It is also not uncommon for me to have a BROWSER open with 50+ windows and use 600mb to 1000mb or ram. I also run DREAMWEAVER, a FTP client, Word, skype, spotify ect.

My new computer will have
intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4790 processor quad-core [3.6GHz, 8MB Shared Cache]
32GB DDR3-1600Mhz [4 DIMM ]
Intel Integrated Graphics
460W Power supply

You're far better off with a separate SSD and HDD. With large files and programs such as the ones you'll be using, you'll really notice the difference of speed with an SSD.
