Just made an order for a massive upgrade from my old desktop.
(AMD FX-8350 with GTX 960 2GB.)
However, I am not too sure about the storage. Currently, I have 2 HDD's at work in my old desktop which have served me well over the past few years.
I want to use M.2 SSD's because I want no bottlenecks with reading, writing and loading times. However, I have heard that SSD's aren't as reliable as the classic HDD's. For now, I will be storing everything on the one M.2 SSD and eventually make the upgrade to a second M.2 SSD where I can store all of my projects files. Will this be an issue 2/3 years down the line? Many thanks!
