gamerchick02question: new SSD for the desktop?21:08
gamerchick02aka should i get one?21:08
greg-galways21:09
gamerchick02which one would you recommend?21:09
gamerchick02not sure if i want to pay $389 at microcenter for a 1 tb. is that a good deal?21:09
devinheitmuellerSeems pretty pricey given you can buy 1 TB drives off NewEgg for $52.00.21:10
gamerchick02http://www.microcenter.com/product/442388/850_EVO-Series_1TB_SATA_III_6Gb-s_25_Internal_Solid_State_Drive_(SSD)_Single_Unit_Version_MZ-75E1T0B-AM21:11
gamerchick02i was hoping to pick it up tomorrow21:11
devinheitmuellerAh, it’s an SSD.21:11
gamerchick02yes SSD21:11
gamerchick02that's what i want21:11
greg-gsweet spot price/size for ssd for main system, sweet spot price/size spinning rust for everythiung else21:12
greg-git is a desktop :)21:12
gamerchick02yes sir21:12
devinheitmuellerSeems pretty reasonable compared to what I’m seeing on Newegg for 1 TB SSDs.21:12
gamerchick02i have a 1 TB slow-ass drive for data21:12
gamerchick02i mean i can put my OS (win 10 now woo) and my games on the SSD and ~data~ on my other TB drive21:13
gamerchick02but i've got an issue because of the way my stupid ex mounted these things in my computer.21:13
gamerchick02meh i might wait21:14

cscheibjrwren: pong?23:47
cscheibgamerchick02: I have a 480GB Intel 730-series SSD that's great.  Think it was around $200.23:48
gamerchick02ooo nice23:49
gamerchick02thank you23:49
cscheibyw.  The 730 series came pretty highly recommended by a few people23:50
gamerchick02nice. i'm trying to decide if i want to spend that much on a new drive.23:50
cscheibcertainly played Witcher 3 well23:50
gamerchick02sweet23:50
cscheibthere's a 240GB version that'st nearer $10023:50
cscheibI had to have enough space for a few VM's, though23:51
gamerchick02i don't need that23:51
cscheibsince you have a 1TB spinning drive, I'd get something in the 120-240GB range, then23:52
gamerchick02nice23:52
cscheibthey can be had pretty cheaply23:52
gamerchick02i was thinking half a TB23:52
gamerchick02i've got 115 of games/programs alone. ugh23:52
cscheibany games I'm actively playing get installed to SSD, then demoted to HDD afterthey're out of primary rotation23:53
gamerchick02hehe ok23:53
cscheibif you're running Windows, a lot of motherboards have a "build your own hybrid" tech as well, but that only works for up to 64GB I think23:54
gamerchick02i am running windows23:54
gamerchick02on this machine23:54
cscheibhttp://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/architecture-and-technology/smart-response-technology.html23:55
gamerchick02anyway... i want to run win10 and games/etc on the SSD and all my files on the TB drive23:55
gamerchick02thanks23:55
gamerchick02ok so, extra desktops in win10 is a killer feature23:57
gamerchick02dunno why they didn't do this beofre23:57
