So what? I accidentally installed Baldur's Gate 3 on a hard disk and it was unplayable, because the assets took ages to load. Transferred everything over to an NVMe drive and it's butter smooth. Just don't put anything that requires interaction on a hard disk and get with the times and plop in an SSD. Best bang for your buck in terms of an upgrade with a massively noticable effect.

Too true. Upgrading to NVMe was the most noticeable speed boost I've experienced all at once in my history of building my own rigs. It's was like black magic. Wouldn't shut up about it to all my friends for a month.
