I can see that being the case...I sometimes ask questions I have my mind made up on irl/online as well.

That argument fails if it's a girl you're talking to. (Or a non-binary person, for that matter.)



One other question: Does the density affect power consumption?

I am not sure, but I am guessing that if the data isn't fragmented the power usage might be a bit less...don't quote me on that, though.

must be teh only person to get angry 'n' defensive at peeps for answerin' teh very question he posed in teh topic line

lmao

I'd like to see some data on that, both synthetic and real world. Perhaps I've forgotten something...

But, after thinking about it, as we move more and more away from spinn disks, it does become irrelevant altogether.

I believe it fails for most men too.
Even without armature movement, higher density gives faster sequential access speed. Also, speeds are faster near the edge of the platter since the number of bits per rotation is higher there.

And then getting angry as people are mostly of different view than you?

It's one thing to stuck with your opinion, it's another thing to go all I don't give a f.

He asked, got the answers, and if he still wants to go with his original choice then that's his life. No need to get upset about it.

Shows how uncertain he is about the choices.
you asked for advice from knowledgeable people.
So you did.

Yes,I did but don't remember asking for advice from (Google searchers looking for a bit of fame) or smart arse knockers. I thank the genuine helpers and appreciate their advise.

Requested the thread be closed.

In the past I wouldn't, however with how poor the quality of HDDs has gotten, I might well get an SSD for some uses.

Unfortunately, they're not suitable for ZFS, which is my preferred filesystem. That's literally the only reason I still use HDDs at this time other than price/capacity.

But, for OSes that don't have ZFS, it's fairly clear that the SDDs aren't going to be any less dependable at this time.

Dunno where you are getting this from. You were genuinely adviced on whether you should get the ssd or not. Was supported with hard data and as well as personal opinions.

Don't get angry when you hear what you don't expect. It's good idea to use it to revaluate your opinion.


You also didn't answer my query on how your new system is fairing? Not just hdd but in whole?

Building your pc is scary for me so always curious on how other people manage it

It surprisingly plug and play, as easy as putting together an Ikea coffee table honestly.

You are one of the smart arses. And that sweetie is all there is too say.

Took me half a very stressful day to build mine. First time doing it from scratch.
Was so satisfying tough when it turned on.

Are you not being overdramatic?
Little friendly jabbing is an issue?

haha! Oh, how easy it is to say that after the event and then all will be forgiven,another attempt at a copout by another troll. Do you think it's that easy,to copout? Troll someone else.

Apologies if i ever was mean to you. was not my intention.

i truly believe based on my own experiences and what i know that you made a mistake. but I truly hope you are happy with your purchase though and will enjoy many many great hours gaming on it.

Cheers mate.
