Does it actually change that much? I did the upgrade to 1 TB drive a couple years back and remembe people saying there wasn't much difference because game data is still laid out assuming HD access?
Yeah, I would've thought this would've changed in the Xbox One / PS4 era specifically catering for digital download, and would've expected different layout for digital distribution vs DVD/BD media. But... the eurogamer digital foundry stuff at the time indicated not much difference?
ah, looks like the answer was "yes, but not evenly": https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2016-is-it-worth-upgrading-your-ps4-with-an-ssd
@Danhon I’m going off a few different sources, but this one is pretty representative. 30% better or so? For games which ping between levels often (battlefield), felt worth it
