That way, I can hold multipleĀ Call Of Duty releases without needing to get more storage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SSD are the future and so are M.2 drives. I'm thinking in the new 2021 (if I get the funds) to get 2tb M.2 drives and that can be used for games. You can even pick up one single 10TB HDD that#s 7200RPM nowadays but still setting you back at $200. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted November 16, 2020 Author Share Posted November 16, 2020 I think 5TB in near future would be requirement for the gaming laptop and the PCs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is, I'm done with HDD as they're ridiculously slow. 15 hours ago, skyfire said: I think 5TB in near future would be requirement for the gaming laptop and the PCs. I think that'll be the next decade although just 5 years ago we thought 20GB was too much memory for a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are still good for mass storage, yes they are slow at 7200RPM but having the fast OS on SSD and with good fast ram and whatnot, in some games, you won't notice anything different.

Yes DLCs are adding things like they don't even want to clean up unused items.Ā Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrik Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 500 GB SSD and a 500 GB HDDĀ , the reason why it's kinda enough me for me is that i never install a game before compeleting a one that i had already, so i can focus on the storyline š Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted December 29, 2020 Author Share Posted December 29, 2020 I think from now on It would be wise to count on the 1TB SSD and higher. though it would cost a bit more but it can be pretty much used for the games and software that has the DLC.Ā Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
