Like cause I have a lot and don’t want to pay too much for multiple ssds. No. The benefit of migrating to SSD from HDD is that all of the data that is being loaded into the sim scenario (including scenery) occurs much faster when using a SSD. Compare the cost of two smaller SSDs (e.g. 500 GB each) versus one larger one at 1 GB (or even 2 GB) of storage. It's a trade-off. Can you afford the upgrades and is the time saved on your current load times worth you buying SSD storage to replace the HDD? A half - half approach will give you comparatively little time improvement in your load times, if you have significant add-on scenery and leave it stored on your HDD.

Cool that sounds fine I’ll do that then, thanks
