opinions on this 4 TB SSHD?

[SHREDDER]

I will buy this 4 TB SSHD on Monday https://www.skroutz.gr/s/7186500/Western-Digital-Blue-SSHD-4TB.html?keyphrase=Western+Digital+Blue+SSHD+4TB.
I wanted to buy SSD but they are too expensive for 4TB for now. Right now i have 1 TB HDD. I will keep that too. And i will buy that SSHD so i can have 5 TB in total. What do you think?

That what i will do get a 4 TB SSHD. They faster than HDD but a little bit slower than SSD however they are much more cheaper.

No, they are a little bit faster than an HDD and a lot slower than an SSD. Well done for not listening to any of the advice you've been given.

Βut 850 EVO SSD is too much expensive at 1 TB or more.

Which is why you've been recommended to get a 250-500 GB SSD for Windows and a few of your games that will benefit. You do not need to have most games, documents, pictures, videos on it. With Steam you can easily shuffle games between Steam libraries on an SSD and a normal HDD.

Samsung 850 Evo 4TB is what I have.... It's actually on sale right now at £1,199.99.

Way overpriced. Should come down in future.

Okay are any faster HDD than the WD Black 180mb/s? Seems like it is faster than WD Blue SSHD 150mb/s. But at same price, Any faster than that? Or WB Black is the fatest?

WD Black is the fastest. I bought one a couple of weeks ago, it's plenty fast enough to be your main gaming drive, perfect for storing your collection. Although still not good enough for a Boot Drive.

ok i read this http://www.expertreviews.co.uk/internal-hard-drives/1406336/best-internal-hard-drives-the-best-high-capacity-hdds-to-buy-from
Which one of the two is fatest? WDD Black or Seagate Baracut pro? Both 4TB version is same price here Is realy WD Black the fatest? I will keep windows on the 1 TB drive i already have but from now on i will be installing all games onn that. There only 98 gb left on my current 1tb drive anyway. My first game that will install and play after i get the new HDD is Assasins creed Origins. But just because i dont want to reintall windows on thatdosent means that the games on the new drive wont boot faster, right?

Don't install Open World games on an HDD. Your HDD is for FPS, Racing and other games with fairly small levels. Flying and Open World go on your SSD.

I will not buy any SSD. Just this 4TB HDD while i wil also keep the 1TB HDD i have now.

Why? You were awfully keen on buying an SSHD five minutes ago.

[SHREDDER]

Because i just checked their specs again and show many benchmaks and i saw that SSHD has 150 mb/s while WD Blak 188mb/s so while WB Black is HDD is faster than SSHD. I hadnt compare those two but now that i saw that Black is little bit faster but costs the same of course i will get that!

Why not get a 500GB SSD put your OS and open world games there. Then have a 2TB black drive as for rest of the games and media. Do you even need storage that much that you are trading huge amount speed to capacity?

Just get an 8TB and call it a day. How much local storage do you really need?

If you really feel the need for like 10+ TB worth of storage, build a NAS setup.

Yes if you do not have any SSD yet, it is a must, otherwise all your PC will be or know, is SLOW.

Now is a great time to get an SSD

Then I shall bid you adieu, and look forward to spending another 4 pages trying to convince you not to buy something that you fervantly want but would ultimately regret at some point in the future.

Why regret? It is the fatest HDD currently and since the one i have now is a 2011 HDD this one isa huge upgrade on speed and storage.

120GB SSD at least for OS and few programs.
HDD or SSHD are good only to storage old files.
2018, not worth to invest in HDD anymore, unless you are short on budget.
