Comment on Can you please help me pick a gaming desktop for my son that can run Monster Hunter Wilds?
impudentmortal@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoI guess 2 TB is also relatively small. However, considering that OP only mentioned one specific game their child wanted to play, I think it’s not an unreasonable amount of storage.
If their kid also wants to do things like download/edit movies, graphic arts, or other storage heavy activities then of course they could go for a larger storage. It all depends on their needs and budget.

2TB is SSD range now, is my point. Buying an HDD that small is kinda pointless. It’s massively outclassed in both speed and capacity by modern drives. It will be replaced quickly and end up being more expensive in the long run for more effort and a subpar experience.

Yeah I replied to another comment saying I’m surprised how cheap lower capacity SSDs have become. It was only like $100 more than a comparable HDD.
