This Black Friday is going to murder my hard drive. How about you?

You seem upset about HDDs but yeah... been a long time since the transfer rates from HDDs were in the KB range... I mean well they are in the 100k KB range but still, you might want to look at upgrading from whatever it is you are using for KB/S speeds.

Random seeks will drop your spindles to kilobytes speeds.

If you are encountering this sort of read rate while actually using the drive in your machine, you need to defragment it... I thought windows even did this on a weekly basis now as long as you aren't still running Windows XP or something? But yeah, there is no chance in hell that a 50gb game like GTA5 is going to be relying on Random seeks for data... just... no.
