Best Hard Drive For Gaming?

momodinero

I have a pretty good rig . GTX 580, i7 950 processor, 12 GB memory But my seagate 1 TB hard drive lets me down. 

Can I get some feedback on what Hard Drives are good for loading times, Bootup. But also just practically good for gaming . Price range not a problem but Not over say $600 thank you

Besides the actual load time, hard drives don't actually affect gaming performance a great deal. You will get a boost with general storage operations if you get an SSD drive but if you are looking for bigger gaming improvement, a newer GPU might be a better option.

Thank you so much for your help guys.

Someone gave me this website and This website has some awesome reviews. Bought Samsung Evo and waiting to receive it soon.

Flagged for spam, this guy's got the same post on a lot of forums.

Haha, the reply seemed odd.

It seems obvious, but worth pointing out rather than just flagging just in case. How would a spam catcher deal with this kind of semi-organic style anyway?

come on guys be matured, how can you say this.
Everybody is not expert or internet geek, everybody starts from zero and that's what i did.

I was looking for some information so i posted this.I didn't even know how to buy a product online. I am totally out of this internet thing. My little buddy wanted to have the system updgraded so i just shout out in the forum.

Wasn't expecting this much.

If you are worried about hd access times, Id recommend looking in to m2 drives. They are in the range of gb/s rather than mb.

What information were you looking for, exactly hmm? And why come to this particular niche forum just to play dumb?

In seriousness though, any SSD would do just fine, I've been using Samsung's for a while so that's what I'd recommend. Any external drive is going to be a bottleneck in gaming. M.2 looks great, but it's very pricey right now, sacrificing PCI lanes may be an issue for some people, and isn't going to be a massive difference in most games in comparison to SSD in terms of price vs dollar.

ps i'm mad right now and fuck LG.
