That's correct, I understand the advantages of solid state storage. However, for my specific situation, it doesn't seem essential right now.

I concur. I recently created several budget builds for clients. In each, I used the standard £50 2tb Seagate drive. I installed Windows 10 on every one of them. It's clearly slower than an SSD, but it still works fine. Simply put, the builds were designed for people and they haven't reported any issues. Each system performed well and felt responsive right after setup.

Yes. It functions properly. The boots are a bit extended, and movement is slightly slower, but it keeps going. You're curious about discomfort? The 5200RPM windows installation is a solid method for handling daily tasks.

Just updated to the new PC hardware. Everything seems to be working perfectly—HDD is actually sufficient for certain tasks.
