Sata SSDs today are straight incredible. They are so cheap (15 euro for a 128 gb version in germany) and increase the speed of any laptop and pc so much. I upgraded a ton of 4, some even only 2gb ram laptops with a trash cpu from 15 years ago and they run like a charm since there is an ssd build in.
@@xNINJUTSZUx Schwachsinn. Welcher Office-Rechner o.ä. braucht bitte 1TB? Ist ja schön, wenn du hier angeben willst. Prakmatisch und wirtschaftlich, gerade in Hinblick auf Unternehmensebene, denkst du nicht.
Forget CPU/RAM/GPU speeds increasing, SSD speed is what matters... first time I ever put an SSD in my old computer I was astonished, I had never seen a computer that fast before! SSDs are the biggest technological advancement for the average computer user, I haven't put an OS install on a spinning disk in over 4 years now and I probably never will again lol!
Nah... cpu, ram, gpu is what really matters, notebook with no gpu and slow cpu will not run better with ssd, i botted my pc with that "slow" notebook hdd and it was pretty fast, but on notebook it doesnt matter because of cpu.
This is kinda funny to me. My one friend always used to complain about GTA V's horrible loading screen to get into GTA Online and I always used to defend it because the 5 minute loading screens gave me time to go get snacks and do other things before I got back to my game. Now I use 970 evo plus and I wonder how the hell I ever put up with mechanical hard drives
It's stupid to use only SSD, you should have like a 500gb or 1tb SSD and like 4tb hard disk. Because only few game have really long loading and you pay way less than having all ssd.
@@Nicolo-ue9xuman, paying $200 to save hours and hours of my time every year is more than worth it for me. I actually just ran some math to figure out whether the ssd was actually worth it practically speaking. Let's assume I play 3 games a day, 6 days a week, 52 weeks a year. Let's assume each game takes over a minute to load with a hard drive and boot times are about 1 minutes slower with hard drives. That means an SSD saves me 4 minutes a day, 6 days a week, 52 weeks a year, which comes out to 1248 minutes saved each year. 1248 minutes is 20.8 hours saved by having an ssd every year. Let's also assume I make 17 bucks an hour, and my ssd costs me 200 bucks. That means my ssd costs me about 12 hours of work to buy. If my ssd saves me 20 hours per year, and costs 12 hours to buy, my ssd gives me a net savings of 8 hours in 1 year.
@@ShadowLancer128 man only really few game take 1 minute to load and with just 500gb or 1tb SSD is fine but having all ssd is not worthy. In online game is even less worthy because you need to wait other to load so just don't waste a lot of money in like 4 tb of ssd
Sata really held up well against m.2 - I think differences would be barely noticeable for most people, most of the time, but other than for mass storage, I think HDD's have really had their day.
I have a SATA SSD from 2012 that was in a laptop that broke and I put it in my first gaming PC the other day and it installed Windows in like 6 minutes, it boots in like 20 seconds also
sata is dead end unfortunately because it hits connector limit and limit of queues. it is like running sports car engine strapped to bed frame. yes you can do it but it is inefficient as hell. single nvme dunks of sata ssd raids any day and it is sata pcie 3.0 nvme that dunk on them.
I think the limiting factor here is where the Windows installation was running from. If it was a USB 2.0/SATA SSD then SATA is faster/equal to and therefore the M.2 SSD would be about the same speed regardless. Regardless, M.2/NVMe is by far much faster and I'm still not sure why we didn't have this technology 5-10 years ago. It couldn't have been THAT hard to think of. Was heating the issue? Voltage?(???) Practical limitation I couldn't think of? Trends? Cost? I am curious and if anyone can answer me, I'd like to hear about it.
@@Not_interestEd- well, we definitely had it 5 yrs ago lol. i bought my current motherboard (asus m270) in 2017 and it has (2) M.2 NVME ports right on it lol. They were just super expensive back then when i built my current pc, but now its soo much cheaper. When i built mine, i went with a regular Samsung SATA SSD bc it was "cheaper" (still almost $275 for just 500gb) but the m.2 nvme was almost double that for half the space. Now, i just bought a Samsung 2TB m.2 nvme yesterday...for $120 lol. So to answer your question, i do believe it was just price at that point in time lol
@@AintPopular ty my man and if it does and i have one installed already, could I upgrade it to a 2 TB and will everything still work correctly and smoothly? Just the difference being i can have more games now?
@@glasscannon4723 if you already have one installed you have to move / clone all the data on the current one to the bigger one first and after that it should work fine
Thank you so much I was really looking for a good comparison to choose a good drive for my new PC great videa :) Also the Intro brought back my MS Dos memories.
if you install all the applications you need after installing win10 , the estimated time for HDD to boot can add up to 5 mins and 40s for SATA SSD , much longer than this video show us.
@@microsoftexpert5293 I have windows in my Nvme ssd HDD. I ve a NAS 64 TB storage also. But games seem to load almost as fast as my SSD now from my NAS storage. What is happening... Is it the magic f new gen games like Call of Duty, Battlefield, TombRaider or will these be slow if all windows and data be stored in HDD
Bro nice and actual great comparison including windows install! No other useless intro shit and to the point, FastForwarded at right time! Great everywhere so I subbed u :-)
SSD в первую очередь это системный диск, плюс некоторые игры и программы чувствительные к скорости загрузки данных с диска, но hdd в качестве файлопомойки по прежнему рулят.
I've noticed my PC was still a BIT slow after upgrading CPU, MOBO and RAM and I didn't know why but I think it's because I need an NVMe SSD but I'm satisficed anyways with the performance of my SATA SSD.
it took me 20 minutes to install Windows 10 on my 6 Year Old Hard Drive that died couple weeks ago, just got the ssd i ordered a Crucial BX500 500 GB and it took me 5 minutes to just install it, it works like a charm. i still wonder how many years hdd still have before being discontinued.
@@thotdestoryer4203 form factor consists of 1) M.2(small ssd that we get now close to 10cm in length) 2) 2.5 inch(similar to traditional hdd size) Interface determine the speed, those are SATA(350-580mbps speed) Nvme pcie(above 900mbs can go above 4gbps speeds too)
@@wrench_in It obviously was NVME. Reality is in normie tasks SATA SSD and M.2 NVME SSD's are pretty much the same. Average user won't be able to tell the difference between them at all. The only time you can tell a difference is when you're transferring large files. The big jump is from HDD to SSD, due to SSD having lot faster random read and writes. Random reads and writes are far more important for overall user experience than maximum bandwidth.
@@teemuvesala9575 m.2 could be NVME or SATA. Seeing how a SATA M.2 and regular SSD have the same theorical speed and the close results I am more inclined to believe that was a M.2 SATA drive
@@konrad999999 SATA M.2 are extremely rare these days and there are multiple tests showing SATA SSDs and even NVME M.2 gen 4 SSDs having barely any difference in most real world use cases. The only major difference is in large file transfer speeds. Here's a blind test LinusTechTips conducted between SATA, PCIE 3.0 and PCIE 4.0 SSDs: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4DKLA7w9eeA.html Spoiler alert; they couldn't tell the difference between any of them.
@@teemuvesala9575 But even if you only save a couple seconds every time you boot, and a fraction of a second in normal tasks the time adds up over many uses. It may be worth the extra $50 in the long run even if you can't tell the difference for individual loading tasks.
A lot of people seem to believe that hard drives are slow to the point of unusable. Of course you won't want to use it as a boot drive, but most of the decent modern ones are in upwards of 200mb/s both read and write. That's more than adequate for storage. Still, don't let me stop you. I'm happy to see hard drive prices go down for price per GB.
HDDs are not all the same speed, so this is a fairly pointless comparison. Most HDDs are either 5400RPM or 7200RPM, which could determine that difference.
Thank you for the video ^_^ This must have took a lot of work. Much appreciated + thank you ^_^ Hope you are all well and resting in Jesus saving love + grace ^_^ Blessings friends ^_^
I'm using an HDD and I experiencing 100% disc usage while gaming. If ever I upgrade to an SSD as my bootdrive and game directory, will it be able to solve my problem?
Now I came to the machine assembled yesterday,older stuff 500gb sata 2 hdd latest windows 10 completely all drivers installed login screen up to 27 seconds. How is that then? 🙂
Are SATA ssds actually make any difference compared to hdds in day to day activities... I currently have an old PC with an i3-540 overclocked to 4ghz with 4gb 1400mhz ddr3 ram(also overclocked) I am 100% sure my CPU ain't a bottleneck here...coz it scores around 1900 pts in Cincebench r23 while a 10th gen i3(laptop) scores 2100 pts....so must be quite usable... My PC is taking 15 minutes to reboot...quite annoying at times...
An SSD makes a gigantic difference in almost all daily activities! Booting is obviously much faster but there's a huge improvement in opening programs and files during every day use.
@@thechannelofrandomness7670 it is the same for sata ssd , you won't be able to take full advantage of a sata ssd in your system but it'll make a huge difference Im using crucial Bx500 250gb(500mbps+ on sata 6gbps) with i5 3570 , which supports sata 3gbps only, but I get around 280-300mbps due to sata 3 but its still a day and night difference compared to hdd . Everything becomes responsive AF in any ssd. But as you said I also used to get ,4-8mins of windows loading time but now it takes 25-35 sec
Only 3 months .. already burned out and my work with 6 months of work, 2 lost clients etc .. shocked I have been on medication since, until today .. thank you kodak .. SHAME !
I used to sit on an HP laptop with a 500 GB hard drive, then I switched to a PC and there I already put a 128 GB SSD drive and was very amazed at how fast the operating system loads. Someday I will change from a hard drive to an SSD on my laptop....
This can be different in future becuz there is a company discovered a way to make the HDD even faster than M.2 SSD. Even though I don't know if the info is correct or not, but it might happen.
There are 2 types of M.2 ssd -- M.2 SATA ssd and M.2 PCIe ( aka NVMe ) ssd. There are 2 type of SATA ssd -- M.2 SATA ssd and 2.5 inch SATA ssd. What are we comparing here?
nvme: hey ssd ssd: hey nvme: welcome to the fast gang ssd: im older than you nvme: err guess i join the fast gang, and what about hdd? ssd: he is not responding
i used a samsung 970 evo plus as the nvme and a cheap kingston ssd for thr sata. probably it was slow beacouse fast boot wasn't enabled (capture card problems ...)
