ITT: tech memes you fell for

>>>/g/ is a tech meme. It has many fooled into thinking they can have intelligent and meaningful discussions here.
I fell for the SSD meme too

I agree those are all benefits, but if you're gonna be fair, point out the disadvantages too.
You want people to make an informed decision.

So glad to have 90% speed. That's almost 10,000 speeds per second.
>>52184667
That seems a little fake yo
>>52184667
There's literally 0 articles on AnandTech that have this graph lol, even their early SSD stuff says that they're reliable
>>52184740
>>52184708
>>52184683
Anandtech caved to their readers' buyer's remorse and pulled the article.
>>52184667
That doesn't make sense. Not the failure rates, but the speed rating.
Most SSD's have a peak read/write of 500MB/s. The peak read/write of a WD Black is 150 MB/s. The HDD shouldn't be at 70%. It should be at 20%.
>>52184766
>Most SSD's have a peak read/write of 500MB/s.
Actually, most SSDs are only marginally faster than HDDs in real-life scenarios.
Don't look at the peak read/write, but the sequential platter rating. That's why the caviar blue is actually faster the black in some scenarios.
>>52184806
The peak numbers are usually achieved during sequential reading/writing, which is when those numbers would be achieved. Random read/write is where you'll see the most disparity, with most HDDs hitting sub-1MB/s speeds (http://www.anandtech.com/show/3981/western-digital-caviar-green-3tb-and-my-book-essential-3tb-drives-reviewed/4).
While an SSD would still maintain 100MB/s to 300MB/s (http://www.anandtech.com/show/7173/samsung-ssd-840-evo-review-120gb-250gb-500gb-750gb-1tb-models-tested/8).
That's the real benefit of SSDs. It's not the sequential performance, but the fact that the sequential and random performance is great. HDDs are really only good at sequential tasks, and cripple under random access tasks.
>>52184754
That's a nice way of saying you made it up and threw on some tech review site name to make it seem real.

Nice one, I needed a laugh before bed.
I have an SSD
I have a 144Hz monitor
I'm typing this on a mechanical keyboard

Really... what more do you want?
Also, helps with battery life on laptops and such...

Your gaemz load kwikr 2
Pic related. All it does is let you open more programs at once.
I fell for the floppy disk meme.
All it does is store my files in an external and portable manner so I can share various documents with my friends.
>>52184379
It makes them boot A LOT faster though. The difference is insane. It's only an improvement so I don't know why you'd call it a meme
>>52184667
And what is the criteria for this?
>>52185643
Oooh nice
>>52184379
You laugh, but for a program, like minecraft, load times in game would be decreased, increasing fps during chunk loads
Gentoo.
real tech question
I do audio production, there's a lot of disk reading and writing and it all happens very often
Would getting an SSD help stop program hiccups? Or would more RAM be a better option?
(the obvious answer is both, but which is more important for fast rw)
SSD is a requirenment for hardcore leagues in Path of Exile
>>52187358
Would it be possible to get something like 32gb ram and creating a ramdisk to cache the files for better performance?
SSD is literally the single most important upgrade you can make to your computer in terms of overall responsiveness in every day tasks.
Get 4 cheap identical hdds and combine them into RAID 0, thats a very fast setup
I see it this way: SSD total mass is 90% speed, so you only waste 10% of material to enclose the speed.

I play sims all day and never needed to buy either, /g/ clearly doesnt understand jewnolo/g/y
>>52187358
A good SSD will help you more, you can't really cache away the writes.
>>52187650
Enjoy losing your project whenever power fails.

I know that an ssd helped my buddy with his virtual instruments and really sped up pro tools for him

>>52184379
I'm trying to figure out which is the bait here, the OP or the people who reply to him?
>>52188073
Im sorry but I agree with this anon.
You guys need to learn not to buy what you don't need and fall for cheap marketing tricks.
>>52184379
I didn't fall for it.
I knew perfectly well that I wanted a both faster and more responsive system.
Not only that but I bought three, two for OS, one for games and all these loading times are so short I wouldn't even have to time read what says in those loading times.
>>52187358
Ableton eats RAM like a mad man.
You dont need expensive ram but you do need ECC DDR3 which is the cheapest you can find.
You need storage for samples,and shit things get piled up pretty quickly.
1TB normal HDD would do.
You dont need SSD for audio production,but you need good CPU and audio card to cut down on latency and loading times.
>>52188413
>Loading 30GB+ of VSTs on HDD
While the SSD isn't needed it does always succeed the HDD.
>>52184400
The colder the body is the better it feels on my cawk.

>power failure
Does that happen alot to you burgerfolk?
>>52189370
it depends on the location. I live in California and we've only had outages when we've had really severe storms (and we've been in a drought for the past few years, so none of that).
I imagine in rural areas where infrastructure amounts to a pole with some electrical cables snaking through countless overgrown trees, outages are not that uncommon.

SSD - no regrets
G400 mouse - -no regrets
Sony Z3C - no regrets
cherry browns/model M - did nothing for me, I'm all good with membrane
>>52184379
The loudest parts in my machine atm are the tradiotional hdds. It's quite annoying to be frank, for deaf like OP, maybe it does not matter, for me it does.
>>52185643
You're telling me that there's retards out there who DON'T do that?
>>52184806
A real-life scenario is RANDOM reads. HDDs latency utterly destroys whatever speed advantages they have(they have none anyway).

Linux as a viable OS.
Is it worth getting an SSD when XPoint is around the corner?
>>52190655
>is it worth getting x when y is around the corner
Look faggot either get a cheapish 120gb ssd and enjoy the performance or just wait even longer for something that isn't going to be cheap for a few years.
By the time xpoint is cheap enough something else will be around the corner.
>>52190655

wtf else did you expect
ITT: People who believe that a single storage component should increase processing power, graphical performance, display quality and swap speeds.
Reality check, you can pay the premium for an SSD which allows faster boot times, load times, data transfer times and back up times in the same way you pay the premium for a high end graphics card when a 750 does the same thing at lower graphics.
These threads are fucking awful.
>>52187260
On Windows yeah, on Linux it's not really worth the money. Linux on an HDD is a lot faster than Windows on an SSD anyway
>>52192259
>a single storage component should increase processing power, graphical performance, display quality and swap speeds.
If that one storage component is the bottleneck then of course it would.
>>52192259
>does the same thing at lower graphics
Why do you want to be behind the curve, though, anon?

ITT: dissenting opinions from people who build cheap ass computers to play Facebook, 4chan, Reddit, and Runescape on, that think their underpowered garbage is acceptable in any sort of real productive environment.
Guess you faggots have never heard of scratch disk or saving/moving multiple GB files in large quantities. Some of us actually use our computers for real things.
>>52192531
I have an SSD and a gtx 980, anon. I'm making fun of these anti SSD shills
I can't tell if OP was going for painfully obvious bait, or painfully obvious sarcasm.
>>52192602
Nice bait /v/ro
>>52190798
Seriously, what excuse does anyone have to not boot from an ssd, a crucial or Kingston drive costs the same as 6 cans of compressed air
>>52192663
Nah, senpai, not bait.

Assuming you're not just using that as a placeholder... NVMe - does it have a noticeable performance Improvement over a decent Sata SSD or has IO bandwidth reached the point of diminishing return?

It reads and writes incredibly fast. It's brilliant for editing and culling massive photo sets.

It also helps with pagefiling and general stability. Running one I/O straining program doesn't bring the whole system to a standstill.
