What's this?

PC junkies: I'm thinking about going SSD for the OS (Windows 10)


What is the smallest size SSD that I need that won't negatively OS performance? I was given a PNY 240 GB drive, but am wondering if I should buy a cheap 120 GB drive just for the OS and software, then use the 240 GB drive for file storage. Then use my existing hard drive as a (on-site) backup?

Suggestions welcome - other than buy a mac and drink heavily! ;-)

  I'm running Windows 7 on a 128GB SSD, works great. -- HokieNoVA 07/23/2016 09:12AM
  I just went from 320GB to 1TB with W10. My 320 was three quarters -- IB4TECH 07/23/2016 12:31PM
  Did you have just the OS on the SSD, or all files? -- Upwind of uva 07/24/2016 07:42AM
  I jumped from XP to Win8 then to 10.1 without the discomfort of bloat. -- PhotoHokieNC 07/23/2016 09:27AM
  They jumped for me. Got tired of my lame "later." ** -- TomTurkey 07/23/2016 10:01AM
