Tbh senpai. Think pads are great
It's not a meme when you only have a 1TB SSD with no noisy hard drives

I delete movies/animu etc after watching them and 220GB of music is more than enough to me

If its for a desktop 120/128gb is fine for a boot drive if for a laptop with only one bay then I want more lol.
>>55268190
I did just fine with my 120GB drive, when it died and I saw a 240GB on sale I thought why not? But I'd never go above 240GB
>>55268190
joke's on you, I own two 128 GB SSDs (ran out of space on the first one)
>>55269354
If you imagine each one as an independent entity I don't think it would be tough to understand.

RAID. I was originally mirroring them (so I only 128 GB capacity) but then I just switched to RAID0 when I ran out of space and also got my real backup solution in place.
(And actually, these days I just pool them, since latency > bandwidth when it comes to perceived speed)

It's not a meme if it's actually good. Or maybe it is. But then, brushing my teeth is a meme for clean teeth and I'm a cuck for following the mainstream that works
I run a public fileserver that processes more than 25 gbs a day, I need every byte I get.

Why? I thought is was a good brand.

>>55274345
Oh, anyway to tell if I got an ssd before or after the buyout?

128 fills up too fast.

I knew a guy like you back at school.
For his 16th birthday we gave him £50...in pennies - for a laugh.
He gave them to his dad who ran a small post office, told his dad it was £75.
"Free £25 bro"
Fucking faggot.

Like Netflix? I had to use it for a while when my server went down. It's fucking shit, doesn't even have half the shows I've got.
>he relies on the Internet to view media
>he watches piss poor quality media just so he doesn't have to save it locally
I'd rather just buy another 4TB HDD and keep building a local collection than pay a monthly fee (even no fee) to watch eye cancer.
128 is good enough for a boot drive + 1 or 2 games
256 is better if you want to fuck around with video files or need to install games
>>55275212

If a postmaster or a paymaster or a cashier doesn't know, to the penny, the value of a lump of loose coins at a glance he's incompetent.
Saw a paymaster take one look at a payroll listing and then dictate the number of each denomination of coin and note needed.
They're like that.
got a 1tb ssd
used about 600gb of it including OS, music, photos (DSLR phots)
separate 2tb WD Black for games which is 50% full
its very easy to go over 128gb i dont like being limited by storage capacity and lose shit by having to delete it after i consume it
also got a nas on which i hoard movies/tv series
I got a 480GB SSD for free and I use it for a few games like TW3 and FO4, which have quite lot of loading screens.

Mate. A post office where i am is run by one guy who sorts the mail and sells sweets and chocolates.

>he fell for the below 250 gig ssd meme
I have no idea how people live with less than 256 gig ssds.
Hell I struggle with a 500 gig ssd in my laptop.
>>55277384
It's because HDDs and home servers exist.
>>55277469
network storage is slow as shit, and even hard drives can be pretty painful to use.
once you go all ssd you can never go back
>>55277485
There is no reason to store media on an SSD, you're just wasting money.
I have windows 8 and a few Linux/windows vms on my ssd as well as gta v and fallout 4. I have a 250gb EVO. An ssd makes not a God damn single but of difference in either game.
>>55277516
>being poor
you can easily get a 500 gig ssd for $150
and if you can't fit most of the stuff you actually care about on 500 gigs then you have a hording problem
>>55277544
You're a goddamned moron
>>55277544
Sorry for having a big plex library and a lot of steam games and a shit house internet connection. I hate streaming and reinstalling games constantly just to save some space. I have a 250gb ssd, 500gb, 2tb and 3tb barracudas and an old 350gb laptop drive and I still need more.
>he fell for the C++ meme
>>55275444
The father should of counted it before just blindly handing over money because his son said there was £75 worth of pennies. How does his post office not get scammed o the daily if the man who runs it can't spend some time to count money or even take it to one of those machines that just count all the coins for you.
>>55275444
Who wouldn't lie for the sake of £25? Money is money and it's clearly needed to live in this world.
>>55277806
Stop apologizing for being poor and get a job.
1tb SSDs are as cheap as $200 now (the OCZ ones are that price at least), it's possible to go full SSD instead of just having an SSD boot drive and a HDD for the rest of your storage.
>being so poor the cost of one of the cheapest PC components matters to you
jesus christ I have 120/256 gig ssds just lying in my old junk pile to literally give away to friends who need a drive.
Get jobs
Will hard drive technology keep improving to the point where we have hard drives as fast as SSDs are today? Or will SSDs keep coming down in price until HDDs are irrelevant before that?
I only have 200GB free left on my 500GB drive. Faggot.
>>55279438
Give them back Jamal
>>55268190
SSDs see drops of speed when writing large amounts of data, the bigger the drive the less severe the drops will be. Try copying a 5gb iso, you'll see it with a 128gb drive, but won't see it with a 512gb one.
>>55277518
Wait, you seriously expected an SSD to raise your fps?
>>55268190
Yeah well I fell for the fucking SSD meme and bought a cheap 120GB SSD for MUH GAYMEN and MUH BOOT TIME. Guess who had to give it back for repairs 2 weeks ago because it shat itself.
>>55277518
The advantage for games is load times. And Fallout 4's load times are ridiculous, and GTA V's aren't that fast either, so I find it hard to believe you can't see a difference.

>>55281230
SSD's over 256gb is a meme, but with games like overwatch actually running a lot better on them, they really shouldn't be.
>>55281385
Actually SSDs below 512 are a meme. You'll get your fast boot time alright(the actual meme) but write speeds will suffer outside of benchmarks.

Op. I have a 128GB ssd that has never been over 2/3 full.
At the moment I'm using 35GB and that's primarily windows installed in a VM so i can run office and rhino.
Ganooloonix takes up 8GB with almost everything I need, and I have a low profile 64GB flash drive for easy transfer of files - I leave it in most of the time because I barely need it.
Everything else is at my parents home ~100 miles away on a microserver running owncloud and Plex. By everything, i mean family photos, TV shows and movies for my parents.
Literally the leanest setup. Fucking love not having to carry shit around.
