To start off this blog, i'll say I don't know enough about hard drives to make it to my usual size of blog.
I was looking through advertisements the other day because I really want to buy a new laptop or a desktop PC, see my laptop is fast enough when performing web browsing, it's amazingly fast at that but when it comes to model creating in 3DS max, it lacks speed, sure I can create models and applys textures to it. Applying a normal map to the object requires more power from the PC. Normal mapping is a technique used to give objects the appearance of having more geometry and using more polygons without putting stress on the polygon count and the game engine.
I got side tracked again. Well the laptop I was looking at came pre-installed with a TB hard drive. It's basically telling us that you can download films and music without the need of worrying about hard drive space. You can download many things and you'll have plenty of space left for other things. I've got a 250gb and it would be pretty hard to fill with only my person documents.
The reaon i'm talking about hard drives is because with the introduction of solid state drives in the macs. We might be in the era of hard drives being replaced by solid state drives. Now I won't bore with you with the maths but for every gb on a hard drives costs 0.09p and for every gb in a solid state drives is 80p which really adds up over time. So you can obviously see the difference.
Don't trust me on these stats. I'm trying to remember what I saw the other day and as i'm walking to somewhere.
Thanks for reading.
