First of all here is my rig: Core i7 920 | Gigabyte X58A-UD3R | OCZ Platinum 3x2GB DDR3 1600Mhz | GTX460 + for 280 PhysX | Patriot Warp V2 SSD 32GB for OS | WD VelociRaptor 300GB GLFS | Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro | Corsair HX1000 | CM-690 w/ Window + 7 Fans CM 90CFM
Thing is: I've run out of storage space
I'm suffering alot with the lack of space...
And as I've got some money recently, I'm willing to buy a new HD mainly for my Steam Games. Therefore I need a HUGE HD, as I have a lot of games
I want it to be fast, as I've got used to the SSD and VelociRaptor combo, and they are fast. I hate when games take long to load and programs let me take a nap before they open. I was thinking of a 1TB WD Caviar Black, which costs like 170 dollars where I live (yes, things are a little more expensive here in Brazil, and by a little a say arround twice the price). But some people told me that a 2TB Green is better than the Black, as it has more data density... now I am in doubt
My intention is to:
Use ONLY the OS in the 32GB SSD, and move Program Files, and all user data (like my documents, and temporary files) to the VelociRaptor (this is what I do nowadays, it is great, but it is a little tricky to do, it has to be done during the first boot after formating, and it is really faster than the default way. Some people might think it is the same as don't chaning it and just install the new prorams to the other driver, but trully, it is better to have the temporary files in some other drive). The new driver, as I told, will be mainly for games.
Thank you people!
