There's no need. His dad skilfully played him into upgrades.

I'm one of the few users left in the world who are still staying on HDD technology.

Reasons? Let's see...

• Still significantly cheaper than SSDs
• Way bigger capacities than SSDs at the same price
• No read-write lifespan nonsense. As someone who has remapped the 'rm' command in Linux to 'shred -n 1000000', i can kill an SSD in months under normal usage.
• Performance of Linux on HDD is comparable to Windows 10 on an SSD.

I have two laptops. One running the standard HDD, another upgraded to a SSD. Ironically, it's my 11-year-old laptop that got the SSD. She boots up pretty fast, but she's only running WinXP due to her limited processing power.

Works great as a legacy device for old software that isn't supported on newer OS.

I still use HDD, more dependable imo.
