Hey guys, my 160GB OS drive seems like it is on it's last legs. Would you recommend getting a 60GB SSD or just picking up a 7200rpm 500GB or 1TB HDD? I have seen deals for SSDs for about $60. And the HDD go for $40 and $60 respectively. I didn't know if the SSD would help with the lag that happens sometimes when loading up the TV Guide or switching channels that happens sometimes with WMC. Although, I am sure a modern mechanical hard drive will still outperform by 6 year old hard drive by a decent margin.
I currently have a 2TB secondary drive that currently handles all my space needs.
In a nutshell, with SSD prices dropping, do you think the performance benefits will be worth it for an HTPC?
Thanks.
