Hard drive combo?

[petersunna]

Hello all!

I'm planning a new C4D workstation build and specifically wondering what the best HD set up is in terms of performance/value for money.
I think I would like three drives:

1. For Windows 11, Applications – probably an SSD (1TB).
2. Working files, Textures, and other assets. – also an SSD (2-3TB)?
3. Archive of old projects and non active files – WD hard drive 5400 rpm (4TB)

Does this sound reasonable or is there a better approach?
Thanks in advance!

Pretty spot on, yep. An OS SSD, a fast SSD for active work/projects, and a slower, archival storage
