Re: WESTERN DIGITAL SILICONEDGE BLUE 256GB SSD Specs
Despite my ever growing lust for SSDs im still holding out till about the time Star Wars the Old republic comes out to decide if I want to buy a small one for a boot drive or if there is a lot of loading in the game to warrant spending dough on a bigger one - to hold the game and an OS install. It gives me a sensible reason to wait as prices come down, im just scared the Voice overs in the game could easily make it the largest install in game history and hold the record for a long time haha. Would I buy an SSD just to install one game on? maybe, if there is a PvP advantage
