it's still cheaper and doesn't really matter for like games and stuff.
like you could get a 256gb ssd + 1tb 7200rpm ssd. extra 5 seconds waiting on the loading screen don't really matter that much and most games are actually optimized to run decently from hdds (except recent games that came out after like 2018)

yea its OK for old games, but for big modern games like forza horizon 5, cp2077, they just dont work. I went from 2 min loading time to 15 seconds when I switched from hdd to ssd
