| Arkaign said: Something that could have been done on either or both consoles : Put in 16GB of on-board SSD memory exclusively for the OS itself, along with the most core apps. The expense would have been trivial, and then other apps/games/etc could still be kept on the HDD. It would also make upgrading HDDs easier (OS and profiles stay, just swap the HDD and update everything again without having to backup anything). |
I do like the idea for future instances. That would definitely make the main system apps extremely fast. But I've heard SSD performance degrades after many write cycles. So numerous updates to the system and the OS on that SSD would worsen the performance overtime, no? Correct me if I'm wrong.
The bootup speed was nothing new for me. Since both consoles came out, I noticed how slow the X1 bootup was.
