"When I was a kid, SSDs barely existed."
Welp. Thanks for making me feel old today. When I was a kid, HDDs barely existed. In fact, they didn't exist at all for personal computers. The storage media of choice was a cassette tape.
Yes, my first computer as a kid was a commodore 64.. now I have a Dell G15 5800H and 3060 Laptop 😊 oh how times have changed
When I was a kid, SSDs didn't exist at all. According to Wikipedia, I was in fifth grade when SanDisk intro'd the first one to the market. Even the *concept* of an SSD is barely older than me, dating back to about three years before I was born.
When I was a kid, it was reel to reel.
Lol, was looking for this comment... When I got a 20MB hard drive I was on top of the world!
When I was a teen, I had my first PC. Cyrix P200L, 16 MB EDO RAM. 2 GB HDD. S3 Virge DX 2 MB. That was in 1997.
Swap files was necessary back then. These days, does anyone's PC uses the swap file?

Hey, I am old enough that when I was a child there were no SSDs at all. I am in my 40s and so you can imagine all of the computer tech that did not exist yet when I was born. Some of the computers back then didn't have 100 MB or more hard drive space. Back then terabyte hard drives were unheard of and were still a thing of science fiction.
I am 20 but i have 2 old laptops with HDDs…i use one of them as an external drive for my new laptop, xbox and TV…yes its only 500gb and is from a 2009 laptop its still does the job …SSDs are just useful for the OS and memory hungry apps like games or MATLAB…256gb ssd is massive ..the rest can be HDD
I’m 43. I still listen to cds. 100% HDD are still worth it for huge data storage & backing up data.
when I was a child there were not any HDD's .. everything went onto floppies. or tape
Mate, I am 50. When working mid-level IT I stole an 80GB HDD from work and showed my friends... they were in awe!!!! At the time, 80GB was... insane.... Now I throw USB sticks that size in the bin!
@@ryanjofre Most definitely. A hard drive won't lose the data after a few years the same way a NAND flash chip might. SSDs may be faster but hard drives are better for long term storage. The only downside is you must be careful never to drop them or there is a chance it is useless from that point on. Even if it still works after there is still no more guarantee on its long term reliability from that point on.

My pre-opinion at the title card: Yes, how else am I going to store my 15tb of... media... in a cheap manner?
and its not like i need to access my... media... super fast, either! i like to take my time and savor it
this video lacks some essential details... 1TB SSDs are cheap compared to HHDs, like less than double the price... but try to move past that and the price of SSDs skyrockets... and past 4TB it's not even an option....So if you need a big drive (in my case I need 6TB to put my 5TB onedrive folder) your only option is a HHD. Of course we are talking desktops, not laptops...
“media”
yeah but LTT is all about gamez, so all they care about is loading times, not how you're going to afford to replace your 16TB fileserver with an NVMe
@@_Digitalguy 1tb SSD's aren't cheaper, it's around $80-$100 for one while $20-$30 for a 1tb hardrive
Try this: Put a mechanical HD and a SSD with no power on a shelf for 5+ years. I have done it for 10+years. All my mechanical HDs worked even ones from 1995. The 3-5 SSDs did not. They could be reformatted and used but left with no power they degrade. So for long term storage don't put a SSD on a shelf with no power, they don't hold data as well as old fashion but more reliable spinning Hard drives.
Actually that can happen in 1 or 2 years according to the manufacturer
and from what I'm getting, the very very old tape drives are even better than hard disk...but only if its for archiving purposes. Loading for even old 1990s games with tape drives would take ungodly long time.
@@linkfreeman1998 I had tape drives in 1980. Those did not hold up well. One bad spot on the tape ruined the load. And I had lots of them go bad early. None were as reliable as my floppies and certainly not close to a mechanical hard drives. I can still reacreat the floppies from images still have disks and drives. I would guess the 5 1/4 floppies were good for around 15 years -+ depending.
The tech level of the SSD is important, ancient SLC SSD's from the era when they were 30-60gb those will likely last decade and retain their data. But newer SSD's? Yea its a crap shoot especially the newer TLC and QLC ones.
@@tek_lynx4225 New and older tried it both ways. Over provisioned Enterprise SSDs are decent but again I would not trust them powered off as long as I do spinning rust. Talk is cheap takes money to buy whiskey :) Its one thing to guess or contemplate quite another to actually test the hardware over real years. I'm old from punch card days. And yes my punch cards still have data on them. :)

Or did you mean the cars from Flintstones?
The fact that hard drives are so incredibly cheap now for a TB or so makes it kinda worth it for storing stuff such as games or documents or music
Yeah, I can get a 1TB HDD for 38eur. A 2TB one will be 50eur.
For 38eur you can get a Adata 256gb SSD or a Crucial BX500 240gb.
For 50eur you can get a Innovation IT M.2 (Sata) 480GB SSD, or a Sata 512gb SSD.
Yeah like you can pretty easily find a 2tb hdd for like 40$. Can't say the same about an ssd.
Yeah, for anything that you don't plan to access frequently, and that is sequential in nature (i.e. the data is one long file, like a movie etc.), HDD's are fine, especially with the current cost per TB - for the price of a 2TB SATA SSD (not NVME), you can get a 4 or 5TB HDD, so we're still not quite at that point.
Other points to consider include things like write heavy workloads (i.e. backups), which will fare better endurance wise on a HDD,
Bruh your games will perform like poopoo
Yeah, massive libraries of music, videos and photos fill up the ssd space at an astonishing rate. As ‘unwieldy’ as big hard drives feel seem due to their limitations, sticking a massive capacity hard drive in your pc solves so many problems.
It’s true that SSDs have become cheaper but people often forget just how big the sizes of videos and photos have become in recent years.
Much love for Anthony as a host. He’s calm, warm, clearly spoken and clearly has a wealth of knowledge beyond the levels he’s talking about.

I'd love to see the reliability issue discussed in more depth. Obviously HDDs are more prone to damage from shock and drops, but sat securely in a desktop or a server environment, I always personally feel safer using HDDs for backing up files because they tend to fail in a mechanical fashion whereas SSDs fail instantaneously, at least in my experience.
By this, I mean that if a HDD starts to die, it generally gets slower, throws SMART errors, clicks, refuses to spin up but eventually does after some praying and coaxing, but in my experience a dead SSD just... dies. I always feel somehow safer in knowing that in a fire, flood, or normal failure, there's at least some mechanical repairs that can be done to a HDD that might get my data back, but I don't feel so secure about SSDs. If I'm wrong, I'd love to know, but it's for this reason I always use SSDs as primary storage and HDDs for backups. It'd be nice to know if my thought process is actually justified or just superstitious.
Engraving data to a physical disc is something i tell my parents to do, i even burn their backup to m-disc cd’s. As i do with my photography. I do tell them ssd’s are awesome until that one particular day of horror. I want to see photos of me when i was younger and guess what… they’re stored on an external ssd of my parents. Just scares me most people don’t understand what they have and which can change lives if it dies and memories are gone.
everybody talks how they love micro SD and SD cards but from my experiance SD and micro SD cards are the thing that corrupt THE MOST on me! i even used a bad GECKO code on the wii and it corrupted the whole card.

i totally agree! i have a total of10TB storage with hundreds of games installed, the hdds must be older than a decade by now , and everything works perfectly! i was one of the very late adopters for ssd, and i have one where my win10 is installed, but for me , who primarily uses his Skylake6700K 16GB PC for gaming, i never understood all the rage about them...NOT ONCE did i EVER feel that my game (ANY game) runs or loads slowly, because of my hdd speed. And i am not talking about non-demanding games either (Witcher 3, Odyssey, Division 2, Control, Crysis 3 etc.) not once did i ever feel that my hdd speed was the limiting factor in my gaming (if anything, my GPU was- a GTX 1070 that feeds my Gsync 3440x1440 monitor)...when i first bought my ssd , i impatiently installed a couple of games to see the "night and day difference" that was reading about in forums for years...and i was disappointed to say the least. For many games, the difference was negligible, and for others, well, for me personally, i couldn't care less if a game loads in 7 seconds or 15.....especially if with the price of an ssd i can get a shiny WD Gold of a much bigger capacity! Hell, i have AAA games installed and running even from a 5400rpm drive and i find performance totally acceptable!! So, there is either something wrong with my perception, or my expectations from my pc performance are extremely low!!
Joking aside, i am more than happy from all my 10y+ hdds and i never understood all the rage of gaming from an ssd , even when i got one....

@@quimoniz what the hell did I just read
A couple of things they didn't mention in this video.
1. The cost savings only increase as you the drive size goes up. You can get 8TB HDD's for about a quarter of the price of a good 4TB SSD and if you're storing movies, images, music or even any game made before about 2013 there's almost no performance to be gained from SSD storage.
2. Noise can also be easily mitigated by using a NAS setup and sticking it in a closet, with the added bonus that you can access the files from any device you own and even over the internet without worrying about whether your data is being sold to advertisers.
There's a reasonably compelling argument that your desktop or laptop shouldn't contain an HDD in current year, but HDD's still have a useful niche because most files don't benefit from an SSD's increased speeds. Using an SSD to store music, images or even 4K video is simply a waste of money. As always with PC building, there's no such thing as a bad product, only a bad price, and HDD's are still well priced for many jobs.
3. The differences between shingled (smr) and non-shingled (pmr/cmr) hdds.
You really don't want a smr drive as your Windows boot drive or in raid configs.
Yea right. RAID 0 2 hard disk setup is TWICE as likely to fail too. Sometimes it is not about the cost of hard disk, if things go wrong, data recovery is very expensive . Dont be penny wise, pound foolish.
I think one reason that strongly discourages me from using NAS is that the speed with which I access the files in NAS is similar to the speed I download them from a cloud drive... It kinda defeats the purpose of using HDD as data storage for me, because the transfer using HDD directly is usually at least 6 times faster than downloading from a clouddrive, with a top bandwidth, i. e. HDD directly linked to a PC is 6 times faster than NAS.
@@burritoszhu Valid point, but it depends what your use case is and what speed your LAN setup is.
For example my main use cases are
1. Streaming 4K video
2. Storing office documents
3. Accessing both remotely
For that a regular 100 MiB LAN is perfectly adequate. Office files are too small for me to notice the speed loss, and large video files are streamed as I watch them, so the lower speed doesn't matter.
If you do actually need faster speeds getting them is pretty trivial.
For arguments sake lets say you have a 150MB/s HDD. That's a plausible number for transferring a single large file.
a Gigabit LAN gives you about 80% of your transfer speed and is very cheap to setup.
If you have lots of network traffic or REALLY need every MB/S of your HDD 5 gigabit or 10 gigabit are more expensive but still quite affordable nowadays, and will let you enjoy native HDD transfer speeds with all the benefits of a NAS.
The TL;DR here is that you absolutely can have native HDD speeds from a NAS, but depending on your use case you may not even need them. A slow network is easily improved and shouldn't stop you from setting up a NAS.
Excellent response!
4:52 the fact the editor stuttered it is amazing
or is it that your using a hardr drive.................
ingenious move there
I really like the hybrid SSDHDs, but they haven't been progressing. The idea is that you have a large spinning hard drive with a smaller SSD cache, so you get the benefits of both SSDs and HDDs because an algorithm is making sure the most often used files are in SSD cache, while the older files are on the cheaper HDD platter. These drives can also completely spin down when idle unlike pure HDDs.
There's software that lets you use an SSD as a cache for a larger HDD. Sshdd are unnecessary nowadays.
@@Guru_1092 there's problems with that. For example, with my current main laptop have three drives: my Windows boot SSD, my Linux boot SSD, and my storage ssdhd. As it is right now, the SSDHD seamlessly takes care of the caching so I don't need to, but none of the other options are good. I can give up an m.2 slot to go with optane, or I can do software caching and give up on access to that drive from one of my OSes...
@@Guru_1092 problem whit that is a SSD+HHD takes up two slot spaces (be it physical space in a laptop, or ports on the motherboard.
so I can see a market for a good SSD+HDD (SSHD) problem is that what we got is a SSD that is way to small to use for anything and a HDD that is way to expensive.
like the cost of a 500GB SSD and 4TB HDD is 1/2 of the SSHD that is only 64GB of SSD and 2TB of HDD. meaning that on all benchmark you got a terrible combo solution.

Anthony is the best
Anthony should have mentioned that HDDs are better for long term data storage (like photos and videos), despite having a shorter working life. That's because SSD memory can slooowly "leak" over time, leading to data loss, whereas HDDs don't have that problem.
Of course, don't put all your file eggs into only one HDD basket, make sure you have at least one other copy of your files on another HDD, preferably separate from your main system!
BUT we don't KNOW(know) that yet...
Hey! Samsung 840 PRO in early 2013 here!
This is only a concern if the drive is unpowered. What kind of NAS is offline for years?
literally bought a hard drive yesterday.
Hey man, not all of us can afford to store videos and back ups we'll never touch on a sdd.
Same here. Regularly buy sets of (3) 10 TB externals to archive images for my photography business and to backup that archive. This vid is really about using SSD as a PC primary drive. But saying that in the title wouldn't be click bait enough for this channel.
He didn't say hard drives are bad, just that it's best to have your os and games on ssd. Also hard drives draw more power. If you need to store a lot of videos/photos/things you don't need to load instantly then hard drives are still a good choice.
Yeah, this is my thing. I can't/don't want to try using an online, "can't get to it if the internet it not available/working", 'backup' solution, which I have to pay someone money for monthly, even if I never, ever, use it. This is what pisses me off with a lot of applications now too. I might use them once a month/year, but you want me to pay you **how much** to be able to use them those rare times I really need them?
That said, its likely that, going forward, I might limit using an HD to "Backups", i.e., the thing I never do, because all existing solutions are a pain in the ass, or online, etc. And, I need to think about, if I do end up having something worth doing this with, and don't yet have a company name, or big bank account, to pay for it - data recovery. Something that.. I suspect, SSDs don't exactly "do" at all.
Right

"Are Hard Drives Still worth it?"
My wallet : YES...
It is overall worth it, as for 50eur you can get a 2tb HDD or a 512gb SSD
@@Reprint001 That's sadly becoming the norm with so many tech channels these days who see something like a $1,200+ USD PC as a budget system, or even a $700 phone as a midranger. So for my wallet unless it's a SFF system, or laptop(those usually get a 240GB SSD as it's more than enough for Manjaro Linux), I usually go with a combo of 120GB - 240GB SATA SSD, and a 2TB - 4TB SATA HDD depending on my budget, or what the person's system I'm working on budget is, and their needs.
Also I don't see SSD lasting as long for long term storage as many HDDs have as I still have a 20MB HDD in my old Zenith Datasystems 286e Supersport Laptop(first laptop I ever got) still running strong to this day, where I've had an ADATA SSD die in under a year, and had to do an RMA on it.
I recently looked up replacing my HDDs with SSDs but the pricing simply doesn't work out. Should SSDs be priced higher? Yes. They're a huge improvement over regular drives. Should they be 3-4x that price. 😬. In the lower capacities (500GB/1TB), prices aren't too bad but beyond that it's difficult to justify.
Yea here in sweden a 8Tb Toshiba N300 is 199€, I have 3 of those and there really dam fast for a HDD.
a 8Tb SSD is about 765€ so yea I can get almost 4x the storage and I have to save every penny to afford the HDD, the SSD is out of the question.
I wold rater get a smaller SSD and just run a caching solution. Tested that with an old SSD and HDD in linux, called Bcache. Works with some tweaks.
I think I would go that route in the future to get a boost on the more frequently used data and a 1Tb SSD could cache data on multiple 8Tb or so drivers.
If you don't have 5 grand for a chocolate printer, HD are still worth it.
Whenever Anthony is in a video, my day is getting better
YESSS
@I LOVE EVERY SINGER No, stop it
Agree
1000%
Hell yes!
I use a 2TB SSD for my OS and all my files. I also have a 6TB HDD which is used only for system backups with Timeshift, and spends most of its time spun down. The lower speed is tolerable for this purpose, especially for only $120 US, and unless it's actively backing up or restoring, it may as well not be there in terms of heat and noise.

As a boot drive for your OS, use an SSD.
As additional internal storage for when speed is not as big of a concern, use a HDD.
Pros:
HDDs are at their best when accessing large files sequentially.
HDDs can come in massive capacities for cheap. Much cheaper per GB than an SSD.
Nearly unlimited read write cycles through the drive’s lifespan.
Modern drives are pretty reliable if they are kept cool and kept in a stationary place. They are obviously not as robust as SSDs.
Cons:
HDDs are more fragile than SSDs. HDDs tend to not last as long in portable environments where they are tossed around often like external drives and laptops.
HDDs are slower than SSDs especially in random access.
HDD failures occur due to them being a mechanical device. Mechanical machines will inevitably wear out. They will typically slow down considerably when a drive reaches the end of its life. Failures can be accelerated or caused by overheating, mishandling the drive, sudden impacts, or old age and wear and tear.
HDDs make noise while SSDs are silent. However, modern HDDs are pretty quiet but obviously not dead silent like an SSD.
HDDs consume more power and produce more heat. For laptops, this is a big deal since battery life and heat is a big factor.
SSD pros:
Super fast. Great for boot drives or any computer. Considerably faster boot times and game loading.
Smaller form factors like M.2 allows for easy packaging them on thinner laptops.
SSDs are considerably more robust than HDDs, making them ideal for laptops and external drives that get tossed around in a backpack or something.
Low power consumption. Less heat. Ideal for mobile devices using batteries. Using an SSD would increase battery life.
Totally silent. No noises from spinning platters and moving heads from an HDD.
Cons:
High cost per GB compared to HDDs
Limited write cycles. After a block has been overwritten so many times, that part of the memory begins to degrade and data can no longer be written to that block. They can be read unlimited times. Luckily, it takes tens of thousands of write cycles to cause any problems. When an SSD drive fails, it will become extremely slow like it went into a “limp mode”, allowing you to backup your information before the drive fails if you are lucky. Higher quality SSDs typically have more write cycles than flash media like flash drives or SD cards.
Degradation of the memory chips can cause data loss, corruption, or a complete drive failure. Over time, memory models can degrade until they become nonfunctional. This phenomenon can be attributed to the quality of the modules during and after the manufacturing process. The silicon and other components may decay that in certain chips, depending on how they were made. Fortunately, this phenomenon is largely attributed to old age and is therefore not a great concern. Time will tell.
HDDs become slow when accessing hundreds or thousands of little files scattered all over the disk, such as when booting to Windows.
For gaming, an HDD will work, but be aware that your loading times won’t be nearly as fast as an SSD.
When an HDD is used as a boot drive, the drive is often so preoccupied with seeking all these little files while loading in Windows, and programs or files will be slower since the drive can’t keep up with the demand. SSDs are a clearly superior in this regard.
Newegg has HDD for 1/4 the price of the equivalent capacity SSD. They're still worth it.
I just picked up a used 4tb drive for $40. I'd rather have the extra 4tb of storage than not. Even if I don't put games on it, i can still put all my documents and downloads on it to free up space for games on my ssd

Still the big problem with all SSD's is that when they die - all your data is gone with zero chance of recovery, and it happens in an instant. HDD's have still the advantage that they tend to die slowly giving you plenty of warning.
So I use both - not for speed or economy more for data security - and yes, I back up everything but that's not always 100% foolproof either.
Never had that issue. When my ssds had died they swiched to read-only mode. I couldn't boot from them for the said reason but all the data was still there.
@@一本のうんち this, when an ssd is getting close to dying, instead of just randomly not working, it'll basically only let you read from it, which is less work on the ssd, and you can then use that time to back up any important data from the ssd onto another one. Plus they last wayy longer than HDDs so really I still think the only reason to get hard drives these days is cheap mass storage like for a nas or maybe a secondary drive in a computer.
Gotta always follow the 3,2,1 rule. 3 backups (mininum), 2 backup copies on different storage media, w/ 1 being offsite
@@一本のうんち This is not my experience with two failed SSD drives. They simply quit, I could still see the file directories but they could not be read from.

@@Defender78 my game average size are 100-300gb so it is necessary for me :(
Absolutely. I only buy 8TB+ Hard disks and 2TB SSDs now as.
Also, a hard drive's lifespan is usually dependent on the thermal cycles and generally the time it's been used for. So for for consistent high throughout writes (like replay logs in certain applications), HDDs are still a decent choice. I still only use hard disks and BDs for archival.

@@lodagin lol
If you are in that situation, it's your own fault for not keeping backups. I have a 500 GB NVMe and a 2 TB M.2 in my computer. No physical HDD of any kind. All my data is backed up externally onto 2 4 TB HDD drives, one in my media server, the other I keep somewhere else. Only an idiot keeps data they don't want to lose on a single drive, regardless of if it is SSD or HDD. With backups in play, your point is meaningless.
( That being said... said 2 tb m.2 costed me a small fortune.... I can totally see why HDD's are still useful in home computers haha)
Wait, it's actually rather the other way around. If HDDs are dead, they are usually dead and you can't do anything or you may get corrupt data. Yes, you can restore the data, but you may need to use some professional data rescue that can cost hundreds.
SSDs on the other hand usually go into read-only mode if they have a defect or are at the end of the lifespan; so you can't write but you can easily access/read and backup the data. Firmware errors are the biggest enemy, but that's seemingly not that much of a thing anymore nowadays and I would guess one could get the firmware fixed (meaning updated if there's a fix) for cheaper.
And of course; back up important data, so you won't loose too much if anything happens.

Just had a larger ssd installed in my laptop in the Philippines. Electronics are usually 20%+ more expensive here. 1TB SSD 6000 pesos = $120 USD @ 50:1 dollar.
Linus: Welcome to the team
New employee: Is this the induction seminar?
Linus: Yes! Drop this hard drive real quick
nah, you meant, "put it down real fast"
TLDW:
Yes they are still relevant for large storage or backups. with the Games being stored on a faster SSD.
2:59 - That was probably the most smoothest segue for LTTstore ever. Learn from the master, Linus you filthy casual.
HDD for all pre-2015 games, some old online games and generally all other apps (browser, MS office and other apps, random stuff like 7zip, Steam and other launchers etc.), docs or screenshots/pics
NVME for all VR games, 2020+ open world games and most 2010+ MMOs
SSD for more specialized/university apps (AutoCAD comes to mind) and everything not mentioned above.
I have 3TB HDD, 500GB SSD and 2TB NVME...works fantastic :) And with how im using the discs, I am more likely to get a larger (or second) HDD as both SSD and NVME are sufficient size for what I use them for.
Why blow money on something you (or the apps themselves) cant utilize.
I wish I could have more than 5tb 😔
Nice 👍
Anthony's voice is so soothing that I just sat through the whole sponsor spot, hardly even registering it as an ad. Just sounded like an old pal giving you some advice.
It may be a FTC violation, so soothing that people don't understand that it is sponsored

In the early days of SSD I was told that it's best suited as a boot drive obviously and your game installation drive but that for your game recording folder and downloads drive I should use an HDD still, due to the frequent and large read/write cycles that would kill the SSD quicker. Is this true or is it *still* the case with today's technology or should I also switch my recording drive to SSD?
If it's reading/writing a large file, HDD is still great for that. It is true, that flash memory has a limited number of read/write cycles, so if you're constantly overwriting a cell, it will wear out quicker.
When I was still in highschool, my school was giving away old stuff to us, IT students, when upgrading to newer tech (from Win2000/XP to 8.1). Among some stuff I chose was a 40GB, 80GB and 160GB HDDs, all of them still on SATA 2 (with IDE ribbon connectors too!), they must've been 10-ish years old at that time, and all of them still work in my spare media PC, now 16 years old. The biggest problem, as said in the video, is jumping around the drive to access multiple files/file fragments "at the same time", which is both slower, but also more damaging to the drive. That's also why you needed to defragment them from time to time.
SSDs, however, depend largely on the size and type. A smaller SSD would have each cell rewritten more often, leading to more wear on the silicon, while a larger one could use other cells, before having to overwrite a previous one. That's why in the older times SSD weren't as good for frequent read/write cycles.
So basically, nowadays, with a larger SSD, you don't really need to worry that much.
I have my OS on NVMe, programs and their associated files on SSD and downloads, documents, and backup on HDD. Works well for me.
Also, Amazon's got a great sale on storage today!
There are some SSDs which have a high TBW rate, so those could work of course. But I see no problem using a regular harddrive for that primarily.
One trick people use for ssd's, is to have some unformatted space on the drive, so the SSD can use said space to allocate for writing data to, if some cells are wearing out, often 5% of total size is already well enough. (not sure where I got the info from, I think it was also an LTT vid?)
Modern SSDs would generally outlive modern HDDs by having at least 3-4 times longer lifespan for an average user.
You'd need to write many dozens of terabytes to kill an SSD.
SSDs became better, and HDDs because worse and less reliable over time.
Not to mention companies swapping their regular models with SMR HDDs which are even worse, so for the same price you might be getting a much shittier HDD than like 5 years ago
________
To sum up: the only reason left to use HDDs anymore is because they are cheap storage, that's it. SSDs are better in everything else.
I keep an HDD as a backup drive in case I have an SSD failure. Works a treat, and no cloud service fees.
