Are SSDs really a meme? I've heard your audio files last longer on them due to almost no rotational velocidensity.

Yeah they're a meme.
Sont buy one.
The speed upgrade isn't noticeable.
Juat get 32GB of RAM if you want to give your computer a boost.

Just use FLAC instead. That also combats rotational velocidensity because it's a lossless format; and it's cheaper to buy HDDs and store FLAC than it is to buy SSDs and store MP3

Is rotational velocidensity a meme? I'm a newfag and I can't tell if it's a meme or not

You've clearly never used a ssd before.

It's not a meme but SSDs don't solve it, lossless codecs are. Hearing the difference now isn't the reason to encode to FLAC. FLAC uses lossless compression, while MP3 is 'lossy'. What this means is that for each year the MP3 sits on your hard drive, it will lose roughly 12kbps, assuming you have SATA - it's about 15kbps on IDE, but only 7kbps on SCSI, due to rotational velocidensity. You don't want to know how much worse it is on CD-ROM or other optical media.

I started collecting MP3s in about 2001, and if I try to play any of the tracks I downloaded back then, even the stuff I grabbed at 320kbps, they just sound like crap. The bass is terrible, the midrange...well don't get me started. Some of those albums have degraded down to 32 or even 16kbps. FLAC rips from the same period still sound great, even if they weren't stored correctly, in a cool, dry place. Seriously, stick to FLAC, you may not be able to hear the difference now, but in a year or two, you'll be glad you did.
