Is windows 10 slower on slow hdd

Solution
Well, they said windows 10 ran a lot slower than on windows 7 with everything same

Absolutely false.
Among all my systems, from exceedingly low end to relatively hot rod...Win 10 is no slower than Win 7. Often better.

People "say" a lot of things. A lot of it is crap.
Have them produce actual numbers.

Sure. Why would you think that to be false?

Define "a lot slower".
Might things be slower? Yes.
"A lot"? That's not a measurable number.

Generalized, slow to fast...
5400RPM->7200RPM->SATA SSD->NVMe

Well, they said windows 10 ran a lot slower than on windows 7 with everything same, so he added an ssd. So, basically if i format to 10 with my basic drive, it wouldn't be worth it as they said, because things will take 20 or more seconds to run. Sorry for my bad english it's not my mother language, and for some sentences i feel like my tongue is bending. But yeah, the question is, is windows 10 a lot more hdd demanding.
