Seagate laid off my dad after working there 30 years … 🙁
seagate most unreliable drives out there
where to install your os
SSD > HDD
ssd should really be nomenclatured as SSS Solid State Storage as a drive infers mechanical movement. A stick without any mechanical moving parts.
Answer: buy seagate
Hello anyone, is it okay to have a 256gb m.2 ssd for my boot drive and a 1tb of m.2 ssd nvme for all of my stuff(games, softwares, multimedia)?
Hdds
Oh well, at least the 5 year warranty worked – for me and my 2 years +14 days old 1TB 2.5 FireCuda!
The NEW one’s been running for a year now…fingers crossed..’cause it’s a HASSLE to change 2.5s in my R4 case!
Me who doesn’t know anything about pc👁👄👁
Nice Spanish subs
I only have a 500gb ssd, should I buy a external hard drive usb for video editing and other stuff and only have the ssd for gaming
will the sata 1 work with a sata 2 connector
Can I use something like a 128g SSD (ADATA SU800) for my boot drive and a WD blue 1tb SSD for my games ?? Someone help I’m new to this stuff
Nice video , just one question , I saw many series of seagate hdd’s ironwolf skyhawk barracuda .. , which one is best for gaming PC
this guy was so entertaining to watch
this was really well done, explained brilliant, thank you so much!
Oh this is part of Seagate’s excuse for quietly submarining SMR drives in their Barracuda lineup and elsewhere as well. So if every drive is tailor-made specifically for the use case, why did Seagate only recently give SMR to consumers, and quietly at that?? 😏
I swear, even if I don’t write a lot, SMR has no place in my desktop. It’s just really bad. Imagine the drive suddenly going super slow when you’re backing up your videos, and even seemingly stopping operations as it does its housekeeping?? No, just no.
When I built my PC, I went with an an m.2 for windows, a 2.5" SSD for Linux Mint, and a 2 TBB HDD for game storage, and files that both operating systems use. This is a nice setup, because if anything ever goes wrong with my dual boot setup and I need to wipe a drive and reinstall an operating system, I can, also, it keeps everything separate for redundancy, so if a drive ever fails I can still have a bootable computer and troubleshoot.
working on a all ssd ryzen 2600 build, mostly all samsung but one pny, don’t have anything against segate drives, have 6TB in HDD, but i’ve had extremely bad luck with hdd’s and have found their typically segates
sshd and regular sata ssd’s are kind of useless unless you have an older mobo.
Oh – man, es ist auf englisch und unter "https://www.seagate.com/de/de/products/gaming-drives/pc-gaming/". Auf deutschen Seiten von Seagate.
lmao rad hoses at the top!
Can you use external hdd
0:10 pause
I just got a 500 GB M.2 SSD and a 1 terabyte hard drive
Hey I am thinking on getting a hard-drive but don’t know what is great for my gaming pc. Which would you suggest? Also how would I make it my primary storage pace and transfer all my data on that drive?
why the 4TB Seagate Barracuda Internal and 8TB seagate Barracuda just a 5400 RPM and not a 7200 RPM
on the other hand the Western Digital 4TB Internal , 6TB, 8TB Black all are 7200 RPM
My brain hurts
What about the SSHD?!?!
Is a 1tb HDD+ 1tb SSD good for gaming or should I get something with just SSD ?
if i have a TB hard drive and 120 GB ssd does that mean i have a TB and 120 gigs of storage??
Thanks for the info, I’m still getting WD though :).
Can I just get a 2 tb ssd card?
If you have like 5 to 3 games then get a 1tb ssd
If you play like 20+ games then get a 120/240 or even 500gb and 2 tb hhd
commenting for algorithm
Is a 512 SSD With 1TB HDD enough space?
I have a Asus PRIME A320M-K Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard… which type of storage do I use?
Way to step over the SSHD? Running cyber punk with under 1 min launch times with my 2tb seagate SSHD. 10 sec load screens.. >)
So if I only have my OS on my m.2 do I need a full TB? I am building mine as we speak and am so confused on what actually will be stored on it
Which is best for recording and storing gameplay? I’m currently using an Seagate HDD and it randomly skips parts of the recording.
What about NVMe storage?
can you get all three ?
am i the only one who doesnt understand..
My HD crashed and got an SSHD by accident used from ebay, I really thought I had a SSD as how fast load times are – then come to find out it’s a Hybrid of both – when i went to defrag I’m like it said SSHD – so after research here I am and what I’ve learned.
with SSD drives only lasts 3-5 yrs and expensive, and don’t make games play faster, but only load times as fast as the SSHD does, if you play the same game it learns what you do the most, and speeds up like using SSD only …HD and SSHD can last 10 yrs plus – so buying used like I do,…or using from another computer Etc considered also, would be best than a used SSD.
the SSHD does all the configuring for you, where to place files, configurations etc and without special software or messing with the BIOS which ive screwed up in the past..so to me I’m sold on the SSHD personally – for an All-in-one drive… for extra storage the HD is still better and cheaper as well – or using the SSD for the OS , and using the HD if you like and know how to use…but for a drop in Drive that does the work for you and not a computer wize I’d go for the SSHD aval in 500 1 t and 2 T’s, or more maybe, i dunno, for laptop tho, full SSD for low power consumption …IMHO for those on a budget and not a computer wizard – live n learn and research the cons of SSD – in fact NVMe or m.2 is the latest in SSD that plugs into the PCIe and is the future IMHO..still learning on that as well – so yeah, thanks for the vid and comments people share
dude left out the most important factor which is longevity.
how do i find what motherboard i have
What if i only just get a 1tb ssd and not an hdd
I’m confused on what I should do I currently have a ssd but want to get more storage should I get a hdd or ssd?
ssd plus hdd combo your welcome
This is the most clear answer I have seen.
