I'm looking to get more storage for my games as I currently have a 500 gig SSD and a very old standard harddrive at 297 GB. I'm looking at Toshiba X300 drives.
They have performance desktop and professional workstation versions that seem basically identical.
The performance desktop ones say they are better for gaming but the speed rpm and cache are the same.
The only difference I'm actually seeing is that the professional workstation ones have a much higher longer time until they are expected to start seeing any failure so I don't know why I wouldn't just want that one instead as the speed seems the same but it should last longer.
So can anyone tell me if I'm missing anything with this or give some recommendations? I always hate looking for PC stuff because there's always some weird niche piece of info that makes your purchase seem stupid after you find out like I had no idea what CMR or NAS was until 5 minutes ago. Like I saw some good NAS stuff but it seems like it doesn't fit standard computer set ups.
