@Solidus reckon you can find an SSD for about £50?

 

[Solidus1]

64gb for £41. Link
120gb for £63. Link

Or you could use an sshd,

What's the difference between SSD AND SSDH.. Is it noticeable/worth the extra money?

 

[Solidus1]

SSHD is just a hard drive with a flash memory cache. SSD is all flash memory, faster and lasts longer. Performance isn't too different though.

 

[Solidus1]

Also, the sshd needs time to speed up. It'll perform the same as a regular hard drive at first, but it learns what to cache over time and then speeds up things you access most to ssd speeds.

 

[Jonathan]

Hmm. I have a TB external that I could use if I got the SSD. Think I'll go for the SSHD as this external is almost full anyway. Was it 3.0 the SSHD? Can't remember and I'm on mobile

 

[Solidus1]

3.0 what?

 

[Jonathan]

Ah, USB

 

[Solidus1]

No, it uses SATA cables.

 

[Jonathan]

Had a complete brain fart. Was thinking about my external that uses 3.0 :facepalm:
