LTCSZ Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 I currently have my P3dV4.4 scenery on a standard HDD along with the program itself...Would I gain any significant loading speed if I created a link to an SSD and moved just the scenery there? Thanks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vgbaron Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Significant? Not really but there would be an improvement. Let's put it this way, IMHO, if you already have the SSD - go for it, there will be improvement but I wouldn't go out and buy an SSD just for that. That said - with the prices on SSD's coming down fast it probably would still be a good idea.

willy647 Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 If you are buying an SSD and your MB has m.2 slots, go for the nvme protocol. They are a bit more expensive but up to 6 times faster than a sata SSD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brytskiva Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 You can put all Add-on scenery there , and load times go much faster if you move the whole sim to the SSD :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
