what are we talking about, when saying overpriced?
In any case HDDs are considered old school nowadays, yeah -
No it isn't just you. Switching from a 10k RPM HDD (WD Velociraptor) to an SSD (Samsung EVO Basic) was the most impactful PC upgrade of my life - almost ten years ago...

@rov3rand0m okay big yikes.
Maybe it has lifetime support or some shit.
Or one of these work station GPUs for CAD n stuff. That price is high tho. -
Parzi88331yHDDs still have a place: they're cheap and hold way more than SSDs. As a boot drive, though? That's a bit of an issue, fair, considering Windows hasn't been optimized for HDDs since... XP? and most people still run it.
