Presumably I can render onto the SSD though and use the big drive for storage? Increasing to a 550W power supply is less than £10 so that wouldn't be a problem.
Edit: ordered. Even our home cinema setup didn't cost this much.
Appreciate all the advice everyone. ____________________ TG. |

USB stick in with Windows (you can build it from any PC, media creation tool) if you don't have a readily available one, I can make you one and post.
Boot from that, install Windows 10 Pro to SSD, £3 key off eBay, done.
It is more the slow copy and writing.
My primary disk is 3500MB/s and 3000MB/s read and write. Your fastest is 450-500MB with the SSD. Your 5400rpm disk will be slower, so transferring say a 2-4GB video file (which is relatively small, I've got ones at 20GB+) will take some time. A 7200rpm will remove some of that time. I would probably consider either a hybrid one or just grabbing a 2TB 7200RPM Seagate Barracuda for £55 (unsure how much your 5400 is)
Its the only real thing I would change along with no Windows. 5400rpm is not your friend |

Ah I've already ordered; I guess I'll find out how well I get on with that speed! Ultimately I can presumably add in another HDD for videos only and use the big one for photos if I really struggle, but as I work with 1080p and in bursts rather than massive sessions, my files are never massive.
Thanks for the offer on the stick, but plumped with Windows with the build; one less thing to do and I'm time poor as well as now money poor. ____________________ TG. |
