    “Best” is usually a vague term. Best would be likely a high end enterprise SSD. Costs about as much as a car but is reliable and pumps out data at multi GB/s speed all day long.

    How much storage do you need?

    How big is your budget?

    How fast does it have to be?

    How large are your games usually?

      Why ssd over platter drives? It’s for storage. I’d say that for longevity a mechanical will outlive an SSD.
