Some games require very little free space, while others can take several dozen gigabytes or more.<\/p><div class=\"gf-info-box\">While most storage devices will have no trouble storing one or two games, it could be a major hassle for a gamer with more than several big games to keep deleting and making space for every new title that they want to try. An average gaming PC should have a minimum of at least <strong>500GB<\/strong> to support a decently-sized gaming library with a handful of \u201dbig\u201d game titles installed in it.<\/div><p>A good gaming storage device must also be fast. In order to properly render graphics or play sounds, a game has to access essential files stored in the storage device. The faster the storage device is, the less time it will take for the computer to process and use these files. Some games tend to \u201cpre-load\u201d files before the start of the game while others \u201cstream\u201d the data in regular intervals.<\/p><p>A fast storage device helps cut down loading times for the former, while it minimizes the chances of the game \u201cbuffering\u201d for the latter. Since reading and writing a lot of data could take a lot of time, a modern storage device uses a cache that lets it keep the most recently-used information on a \u201ctemporary\u201d storage of sorts. This helps reduce the amount of data that has to be directly read or written into the storage device and helps cut down loading times.<\/p><p>When talking about endurance, we\u2019re not talking about the storage device getting knocked around. Instead, we\u2019re referring to how well a storage device can keep performing at 100% over a long time of constant reading and writing. A low-quality storage device used for heavy gaming will eventually start having problems way sooner than a high-quality one.<\/p><p><strong>Using these three factors as reference, let\u2019s take a look at what you can expect from an HDD.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a302b81 elementor-widget elementor-widget-video\" data-id=\"a302b81\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;youtube_url&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/www.youtube.com\\\/watch?v=hUGt0M6YhsU&quot;,&quot;video_type&quot;:&quot;youtube&quot;,&quot;controls&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"video.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*! elementor - v3.20.0 - 11-03-2024 *\/\n.elementor-widget-video .elementor-widget-container{overflow:hidden;transform:translateZ(0)}.elementor-widget-video .elementor-wrapper{aspect-ratio:var(--video-aspect-ratio)}.elementor-widget-video .elementor-wrapper iframe,.elementor-widget-video .elementor-wrapper video{height:100%;width:100%;display:flex;border:none;background-color:#000}@supports not (aspect-ratio:1\/1){.elementor-widget-video .elementor-wrapper{position:relative;overflow:hidden;height:0;padding-bottom:calc(100% \/ var(--video-aspect-ratio))}.elementor-widget-video .elementor-wrapper iframe,.elementor-widget-video .elementor-wrapper video{position:absolute;top:0;right:0;bottom:0;left:0}}.elementor-widget-video .elementor-open-inline .elementor-custom-embed-image-overlay{position:absolute;top:0;right:0;bottom:0;left:0;background-size:cover;background-position:50%}.elementor-widget-video .elementor-custom-embed-image-overlay{cursor:pointer;text-align:center}.elementor-widget-video .elementor-custom-embed-image-overlay:hover .elementor-custom-embed-play i{opacity:1}.elementor-widget-video .elementor-custom-embed-image-overlay img{display:block;width:100%;aspect-ratio:var(--video-aspect-ratio);-o-object-fit:cover;object-fit:cover;-o-object-position:center center;object-position:center center}@supports not (aspect-ratio:1\/1){.elementor-widget-video .elementor-custom-embed-image-overlay{position:relative;overflow:hidden;height:0;padding-bottom:calc(100% \/ var(--video-aspect-ratio))}.elementor-widget-video .elementor-custom-embed-image-overlay img{position:absolute;top:0;right:0;bottom:0;left:0}}.elementor-widget-video .e-hosted-video .elementor-video{-o-object-fit:cover;object-fit:cover}.e-con-inner>.elementor-widget-video,.e-con>.elementor-widget-video{width:var(--container-widget-width);--flex-grow:var(--container-widget-flex-grow)}<\/style>\t\t<div class=\"elementor-wrapper elementor-open-inline\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-video\"><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-90b4682 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"90b4682\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hard_Disk_Drive_HDD\"><\/span>Hard Disk Drive (HDD)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3><p>An HDD is a type of storage device that features one or more platters or disks (hence the name) inside. Each platter is coated with a very thin magnetic film. In order to store or read data, an arm with a magnetic head hovers very close to the thin film and magnetizes it while the disk spins at a very high speed.<\/p><p>Today\u2019s typical HDDs spin at speeds of around 5,400 or 7,200 RPM. Each spinning platter has one corresponding read write head. For the longest time, HDD was the only option for gaming PCs. In fact, even modern gaming consoles like Xbox One and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gamingfeature.com\/best-external-hard-drive-ps4\/\">PlayStation 4<\/a> almost exclusively relied on HDD storage devices to keep game data.<\/p><div class=\"gf-info-box\">How does the HDD fare in terms of size, speed, and endurance? Let\u2019s take a closer look to find out.<\/div><p><strong>Size<\/strong> \u2013 If there\u2019s one thing that HDDs are known for, it\u2019s the sheer amount of data that they can store. While budget PC builds usually have 500GB HDDs, 1TB and 2TB HDDs are also popular among the more dedicated PC players. It\u2019s easy to maintain a large game library with several major game titles even with just a single HDD in your CPU.<\/p><p><strong>Speed<\/strong> \u2013 As mentioned earlier, today\u2019s HDDs spin at either 5,400 or 7,200RPM. Because gamers prefer to keep load times as short as possible, it\u2019s best for them to limit their choices to 7,200RPM HDDs. Most HDDs feature 64MB caches, but 128 and 256MB caches are also available for a slightly higher price.<\/p><p><strong>Endurance<\/strong> \u2013 Having been available in the market for a long time, HDDs have garnered a reputation of being \u201cread-and-write monsters\u201d. An HDD can easily last for three to five years even if heavily used, and much longer than that for more casual users. This is why many gamers tend to just transfer their old HDDs to newer rigs to keep old games that they\u2019ve been enjoying for years.<\/p><div class=\"gf-minus-box\"><strong>Important!<\/strong> \u2013 HDDs for PCs are available in 3.5\u201d and 2.5\u201d \u201cslim\u201d sizes. Full-sized gaming rigs often use 3.5\u201d HDDs, while 2.5\u201d HDDs are often used for laptops or compact gaming builds.<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-315fa60 gf-img-border elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"315fa60\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"398\" height=\"329\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gamingfeature.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/SSD-vs-HDD-boot-time-Comparison.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-3827\" alt=\"SSD vs HDD boot time Comparison\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gamingfeature.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/SSD-vs-HDD-boot-time-Comparison.jpg 398w, https:\/\/www.gamingfeature.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/SSD-vs-HDD-boot-time-Comparison-300x248.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 398px) 100vw, 398px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">SSD vs HDD Boot Time Comparison<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0197346 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"0197346\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Solid_State_Drive_SSD\"><\/span>Solid State Drive (SSD)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3><p>The newer of the two PC storage device options, a Solid State Drive is a storage device that ditches the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcmag.com\/encyclopedia\/term\/64972\/mechanical-drive\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">mechanical disks<\/a> for micro-circuits and transistors in order to store digital information. Although SSDs do not have the platters found in HDD, they are usually available in the same form and shape as HDDs and use the same <a href=\"https:\/\/www.intel.com\/content\/www\/us\/en\/support\/articles\/000006677\/boards-and-kits\/desktop-boards.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SATA ports<\/a> used to connect to the motherboards.<\/p><p>Because of the nature of how data is stored, an SSD does not have any moving components in it. This means that an SSD also has the benefit of not getting damaged by small impacts when you have the computer on and you accidentally bump into your CPU.<\/p><div class=\"gf-info-box\">Once again, we look at the three key factors to see why many gamers think SSD is better for gaming.<\/div><p><strong>Size<\/strong> \u2013 When SSD first hit the mainstream PC gaming market, people didn\u2019t really like it that much. The first major SSDs were too small to contain even a relatively small gaming library. However, 1TB and 2TB SSDs are now available, although they cost a lot more than HDDs with the same capacities. Pricing aside, capacity is no longer that much of an issue compared to back then, several years ago.<\/p><p><strong>Speed<\/strong> \u2013 Speed is easily the biggest advantage of SSDs over HDDs. An HDD\u2019s physical mechanisms ensure that reading and writing data will take longer than it would an SSD. Gamers upgrading their storage devices from an HDD to an SDD will experience a significant decrease in loading times and experience shorter (if any) buffering when playing games.<\/p><p><strong>Endurance<\/strong> \u2013 Although an SSD ties with HDD in terms of size and cleanly beats it in terms of speed, it loses when it comes to long-term endurance. Because information is stored in the electrical charges instead of more permanent magnetized patterns, an SSD can\u2019t hold data for as long as an HDD. This also means that SSDs are not yet suitable for long-term file storage especially if you plan to use it for making an archive of your games.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6c6c47d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6c6c47d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_is_SSD_Better_for_Gaming\"><\/span>Why is SSD Better for Gaming?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3><p>Although choosing between an HDD and an SSD seem like a matter of trading one advantage for another, the fact that an SSD provides a more significant improvement on game performance makes it a more desirable option for hardcore gamers. Simply being able to load files faster in some games could be the difference between a quality gaming experience and an occasional \u201cslide show\u201d of buffering data.<\/p><p>However, that doesn\u2019t mean that you should completely ditch HDD storage devices. HDDs may not be as fast, but they\u2019re great if you\u2019re the type that prefers to play a wide variety of games since you don\u2019t have to worry about losing data. Also, if you\u2019re planning to build a budget-friendly gaming rig, having a lot of storage while keeping overall costs down is much more possible by sticking to HDD.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fd0ff0c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"fd0ff0c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Both_Is_Better\"><\/span>Both Is Better<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3><p>If you want to reap the benefits of both SSD and HDD, the most cost-effective way to do it is by adding both to your computer. The SSD must have your computer\u2019s operating system and your most frequently-used games \u2013 you\u2019d want them to load as fast as possible, and a more affordable 256GB SSD should still be able to store a few big games. Have the rest of your games installed on a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.computerweekly.com\/feature\/Hard-drive-capacity-emphasized-over-performancefor-future-enterprise-hard-drives\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">higher capacity<\/a> HDD.<\/p><p>Sure, they won\u2019t load as fast as the ones in your SDD, but its fine if you don\u2019t play those titles that much. The same thing can be said for low-resource games, which do not take much to load in the first place.<\/p><p>If you\u2019re the type of user who also tends to record your playthroughs, things can get a bit more complicated. An SSD allows you to record video at higher bitrates, but the way data is stored there means there\u2019s always a chance to that you lose your footage, especially if there\u2019s a power outage of sorts. Because of this, many gamers recommend playing games on SSD while having their gameplay recorded on a dedicated
