Is it necessary to install SATA HDD after i have NVME?

[FifaAnonyme]

A few months back my laptop's 1TB HDD got trouble and unable to run, due this pandemic i cant afford to bring my laptop to service center. As i need my laptop for daily basis and job, i installed a 1TB Corsair NVME SSD.

Luckily enough the old HDD is now able to run but slower than before. As im trying to recover my data, my SSD has no much space remaining to contain my data from the HDD


And now perhaps im gonna dump the old HDD and install a new SATA SSD, but little bit tight on my pocket.
Is it necessary to install SATA HDD after i have NVME???

well .. You don't need to buy / install a new SSD for your data storage. u can install / buy a new sata hdd it will be cheap and efficient. just bought a new hdd, and moved the old data on there. then only use ure nvme for install windows and other programs. p.s: make sure you create some space on your nvme, and NEVER try to defragment your nvme

Now this one surprised me, cuz i do always defrag my drives once every 3-6 months. But as u tell me not to defrag nvme, can u explain why???

PS: even on my old HDD, i always limit the storage to 75% at max.

I don't think you need to have sata hdd installed after having NVME.

There are two reason why u dont need to defragment ur ssd. first relates to the lack of performance benefits, which is, after all, the entire point of defragmentation. second reason has to do with the health of your SSD. It turns out that defragging an SSD can shorten its life

I don't think you need to have sata hdd installed

 

[notikzer]

no, if u have a high storage ssd u can use it for windows and ur documents, but if u have a 500go sata, use it for your games etcc and install windows and apps on a hdd

Actualli sata dont have many disadvantages than nvme.

 

[kiseryota123]

imo if ur nvme only has 500 gb below then u should have additional hard drive for storage

 

[bumbus5]

there is no need for a HDD if you got a 1TB NVMe SSD

500 gb ssd + 1tb hdd best

Just get second HDD and move ur data there.

If u no need more space then no sense to do it.

 

[alialiali2003]
