Note that you should budget to have SSDs quite a bit larger than the minimum size that might suit your needs. The SSDs have not given any trouble, and Samsung provides “Magician” software for tuning up the SSDs.
My office is all SSD apart for one internal 2Tb HDD and a few external USB HDDs for backup.Īll four boot drives are NVME, of various ages, while I have several SATA Samsung SSDs for data and two Samsung USB SSDs for quick backup. The latter is faster, but I think it is more prone to faults.
#Will a solid state hard drive speed up my computer install
I am not sure whether to install a conventional hard disk drive or a Solid State Drive (SSD). None of those have given me any problems at all and I haven't seen any wear-out issues from my monitoring of the drive's SMART reporting. I've been using SSDs since 2010, starting out with an IBM X25M which I ran for 10 years and now a pair of Samsung 970 Plus and Pro 1TB SSDs. If you can fit everything onto a single SSD that's great, but for most people you only need the performance of an SSD for a relatively small proportion of your files - so it's pretty common to have an SSD as the system drive and perhaps a few specific performance-critical files such as image catalogs and use a hard drive for the rest. SSDs are a pretty mature technology these days, and I think reliability really isn't a concern - certainly not if you stick with a name brand like Samsung. How has been you experience with SSD drives ? The latter is faster, but I think is more prone to faults.
