SSDs Essential for PC Gaming: HDDs No Longer Enough

Game developers are starting to require SSDs as a minimum spec for modern PC games, leaving behind the Xbox One and PS4 generation of consoles. Bethesda's Starfield will require 125GB of SSD storage when it debuts on September 6th, while CD Projekt Red is bumping the minimum specs of Cyberpunk 2077 to require an SSD at minimum and phasing out HDD support. This transition will be gradual, but developers are getting ready to move to a world of SSD speed and silence.
