I have a 250 GB M.2 SSD in which Windows is installed and a 1 TB M.2 to store my games and stuff. Now the 1 TB is out of space and I’m buying another 2 TB drive, but I don’t know if I should clone the 250 GB to the 1 TB and move the contents in the 1 TB to the new 2 TB stick, or just buy a SATA SDD for the same price.
I can have faster write/read speed with the 1st option but with I only get 1 more TB of storage, while the second option gives 2 TB at the cost of speed.
Which way should I go? Both the M.2 and SATA I’m planning on buying have the same price and I mainly use the PC to play games. I play FO4 and I have a lot of mods installed (like over 500) so I need space but I don’t know if the speed trade-off is worth it.
Edit: I forgot to mention, the 250GB has the fastest write/read speed.
