1TB now is selling in uk at what I paid for 500Gb a year ago !

I already have 500GB SSD C drives on 2 PCs, so my calibre library runs from SSD. but I don't recall it ever being slow back when I had Spinning drives. I put the old 250G ones into USB caddies to use as additional console storage and speed up game loading.
Lol, it’s possible to buy a 4TB SSD with how much I paid for a 1TB SSD 5 years ago. Mind, the laptop that got the SSD was very difficult to upgrade (had to remove the keyboard and everything) so I don’t regret going straight to 1TB (I needed it). Laptop’s actually still in use.

With my usage, I need the SSD. I do a lot of bulk edit and library maintenance operations and those are definitely faster on SSD.
