FS19 SSD or HDD

[Nutmeg]

Hello,

on which type of drive /SSD,HDD .../ you prefer to run Farming simmulator 19 and what's your experience with that? Is there any perceptible ingame difference against traditional HDD?

Thank you ...

ssd is always faster loading times.

This is a good question, my game is on HDD, but I have a very good gaming computer (all new games at ultra 60fps) but FS19 does not! At medium 60fps without modes, the game is not optimized, maybe the transition to SSD will load the game faster, so maybe there will be more FPS, or in general the game is not optimized. I5 9400F, 16 gb ram, rx 590 nitro+ 8gb.

Ingame you wont recognize a difference between SSD and HDD.
As already mentioned, the startup times of the PC itself (if operating system is installed on SSD) and of the game will hugely benefit from a SSD.
If you ever used a PC with SSD as system drive, you will never ever want to go back to a HDD.

If you don't need huge amount of data storage, a 500GB SSD is all you need. For mass data storage you can still install a HDD beside the SSD at a later stage.
I can recommend SSDs from CRUCIAL using them for years now without any problems. Don't get fooled by awesomely high data transfer rates other manufacturers might provide. As long as you are not shuffling around huge amount of data, you will see no difference at all in daily usage.
