HDD vs SSD in Assassin's Creed: Shadows on PC. The minimum requirements for Assassin's Creed: Shadow states that a SSD is required to play the game, so I thought I'd test that. In this video, I share my experience playing AC Shadows on an HDD.
HDD: Seagate BarraCuda 2TB 3.5 Inch SATA 6Gb/s 7200 RPM 256MB Cache 3.5-Inch
SSD SATA: SAMSUNG 870 EVO SATA SSD 500GB 2.5”
