So I've noticed it doesn't come with an SSD - but a 5400 rpm 1TB HDD. From what I understand, this is a matter of concern for gamers since SSDs runs faster than HDD. It is recommended that customers purchase an SSD if they want their games to run as quick as possible.

 

A couple questions:

 

1) The laptop can hold both an HDD and SDD. Do people install their games on the SSD or the HDD? How about the OS?

 

2) For gamers who use this laptop, how big of an SSD do you guys reccomend that I buy? What have you bought?

 

3) How does one install an SSD on this laptop? Is it a complicated process?

 

4) Considering the price of purchasing an SSD, would it make more sense to purchase this version of the laptop instead? - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834314702&cm_re=acer_aspire_v15_nitro_black_edition-_-34-314-702-_-Product

 

Thank you all for your help!
