Sureeee

[Mouton]

why would you install on HDD instead of SSD, wtf we can read on internet...

[Ａｂｎｅｔｏ]

SSD usually are shorter on size, if you going to install it in one, make sure there is alot of space, because R* sure doesn't go lightly on update sizes...

Go with HDD. If it's anything like GTA, you will only save a second or two.
SSD space is just not worth it for large games or games in general imo

i put gtav on my m2 nvme ssd 500GB and it saved me an entire minute of loading. for online if you are constantly seeing loading screens when you swap between lobbies its actually pretty useful.

I'm playing red dead 2 on a laptop hd and loading times are very fast. Save your ssd space for something else!

Go ahead, I'm not telling you what to do. I'm just saying what's probably the best for your PC.
The thing is that I have it on HDD as well as M2 and loading time is the same. About 10 seconds in both cases (for online).

What size is your SSD? And, is it SATA (2.5 inch) or an NVMe?

Reason I ask, if your SSD is really small (i.e. 250 GB), then you might not want it on SSD especially if you already have other games filling up the SSD. It's a storage issue like you've mentioned.

A 500 GB SSD should be fine for Red Dead Redemption, so long as you have at least 100 gb of free space (roughly). These downloads are weird - some are twice the normal size (or more) during download, which can easily fill a small SSD, or not allow the update to install at all.

But even a small SSD (250 gb) has enough room if RDR2 is the only game installed on it.

Speed: NVMe SSD's are much faster than regular SSD's (SATA), so if you have one, you'll benefit a lot from a NVMe. Exactly how much - I don't know.

Has anyone compared fast travel load times w/ HDD versus (SATA) SSD vs NVMe SSD? NVMe has to be a lot faster.

On my NVMe system, it seems to take about 10-20 seconds which seems too long. Weird...

Open world games should always be installed on SSD. I had AC: Origins on my HDD and had stuttering especially when just loading the game. 2 min after that, no stuttering at all.

Nope. SOmetimes loadingg times are redicilously long just like GTA V.
