Ssd required? Does it use direct storage?
I'm speculating using a physical hard drive will be a poorer user experience - ie: being slow to stream the world data causing pop in, texture loading issues etc
Both drive types are physical devices that a person can hold in their hand; you must have meant another word. Platter, maybe? Unless... something has changed drastically and I'm out of the loop. Are the youngsters downloading both RAM and storage drives now?
Wouldn't that need Windows 11?
DirectStorage is supported by Windows 10 and 11.
Nah I have a SSD with my rig running Windows 10. You'll just have to switch your hard drive which can be kind of a pain
Good to know, thanks!
