HDD vs SSD vs M.2 NVMe in Dying Light: The Beast. The minimum requirements for Dying Light: The Beast states that an SSD is required to play the game, so I thought I'd test that.
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”
M.2 NVMe: CORSAIR MP700 Elite 1TB PCIe 5.0 x4 NVMe M.2 SSD – Up to 10,000MB/sec
