If space + price is an issue consider a regular HD (e.g. WD Black). An SSD will load much faster.

It loads much faster than a HD but not as fast as SSD. Does a hybrid load my scenery faster I can't say but a Seagate 2tb isn't that much more than a HD so I went with it. ZORAN
December 23, 20178 yr Ok here's another building question for starting would going Max ram of 128gb Mother board ASUS ROG RAMPAGE V EDITION 10 LGA 2011-v3 Intel X99 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.1 Extended ATX Motherboards - Intel With a Intel Core i7-6950X 25M Broadwell-E 10-Core 3.0 GHz And a MSI GeForce GTX 1080 Ti DirectX 12 GeForce GTX 1080 Ti GAMING X 11G 11GB 352-Bit GDDR5X Is any thing I should change?
