ssd
I bumped this build up to 1TB because I genuinely think it’s worth it for a comfy experience. I used the Silicon Power A60 NVMe, but honestly any PCIe SSD will work fine here—you probably won’t notice a difference at this budget. My rule of thumb is simple: get the most storage you can afford.
You'll be taken to Geni to complete your purchase.
Pros
- +1TB capacity is a big quality-of-life upgrade
- +NVMe PCIe SSD is plenty fast for gaming and everyday use
Cons
- -Specific model speed differences are usually not noticeable in this budget class
- -Cheaper drives can vary in endurance/controllers
