then 3 SSD's. One 1tb,and two 500gb
The HDD is for older games(2015 and before) file back ups, pictures, downloads etc.
then the SSD's are for new games,windows and programs
I could use with another 1tb SSD (probably gonna get a NVME drive )
but i'm pretty good with 3tb total space.
You're free to use whatever hardware you want. But regardless of how you feel about your HDD, SSDs are just better where performance is concerned. If that doesn't matter to you, that's fine. But it does objectively matter for everyone else where disk performance is a concern.
Also, fyi, Windows boot time isn't the only thing SSDs impact. Program load times aren't the only things SSDs impact.
I will NEVER accept commercial cloud storage.
Not yet.
In the main machine - windows/linux are nvme & 1 sata SSD.
There are a bunch drives in my other machine - server/NAS. External drives for backups are all hard drives.
When price parity hits with 8TB sata SSDs & hard drives, then maybe switch over. It depends on the SSD quality.
The cheapest high capacity SSDs have major flaws. It is mainly that they use QLC flsh (4 bits/cell). It has bad longevity. Also write speeds go lower than hard drives when the slc cache fills up.
It is really about the right tool for the job.
Hardware is never truly obsolete. Old parts can always find a place in a DIY NAS or beowulf cluster, or donated to be refurbished and used by enthusiasts or low income communities.

SATA SSDs still had value when PCI-e bandwidth was more costly, now it isn’t, so SATA drives in general are starting to become pointless aside from high capacity drives. There’s really no excuse for not running an OS off of an SSD, just excuses and cope.
It doesn't matter much because even if a HDD could pull the full speed SATA allowed, they'd still be dirt slow because of their low IOPS. That tech spec along with having DRAM cache is more important then glamorous read/write speeds alone.
you have a pretty new account , so i'm going to guess you haven't played enough games yet , a lot of newer games and games slated to come out really play a lot better from a ssd , there are games that won't even play good on a mechanical drive.
Some time down the road you will see more and more games that need an SSD drive to just be playable.
10 dollars a tb is pretty impressive to me at least

I had a goal.
Oh yay a drive with multiple platters just waiting to fail. Quality over quantity, that's where people make the mistake.
What I meant was, does a single PC, especially for which you probably have no backups for data-wise, really need internal storage holding so many TB of data? I mean seriously, for what. You're going to cry when the drive just up and dies one day and you lose everything.
Now if you have NAS, or Externals and make multiple backups; good on you.
But yea my NAS is about to be replaced, it was 4x 8TB WD Gold and I replaced them because before the 4x8TB got old I sold and replaced the drives. Now 4x12TB just isn't enough and 20TB are getting cheap.
But having tons of internal HDDs in a single PC, which probably aren't very reliable to begin with, going through 1000 of power cycles over the life of that PC; yea not a good idea.
as such its a ssd running at 590mbit and not the 2500+ mbit the first gen m.2 models did let alone the current ones reach.
400 euro for the 1tb sata600 sdd
150 euro each for the 4tb hd's
i have since added a 4tb m.2 and replaced the hds for 2x10tb ones.
350 euro gor the 4tb m.2
200 euro each for the 10tb hd
the old 1tb ssd I since taken out and I use as external storage
the old 4tb hds now lay unused in the box with spare parts.
a future build (likely next year) will meam I get a motherboard with more than just 1m.2 slot at which point I might skip any sata drives.
current board just has the 1 m.2 slot and i want 2 mirrored backup drives.
size of m.2 also is gradually increasing.. 4tb m.2 are now priced as 512mb m.2 or 1tb ssd were 8 years ago..
a decently priced 16tb m.2 (say under 1000 euro) would remove all need for sata in future.
