| Soundwave said: The gap between SSD and disc read speed is 1000x+ now (5500MB/sec vs 50MB/sec) though, in the past the gap was at least respectable to the point where it made some sense to run a game off a disc ... the disc drive today is basically useless, it's just there to essentially dump the game onto the SSD |
Why is 50 MB/s from disc "basicly useless"? The internet speed average of most countries every country is slower than that:
f.e. USA = 287 MBit/s = 36 MB/s, Canada = 242 MBit/s = 30 MB/s, France = 300 MBit/s = 38 MB/s, Japan = 220 MBit/s = 28 MB/s, Germany = 99 MBit/s = 12 MB/s
Or do you buy SSDs where the console games are already preinstalled?
