Systems Comparison

The 1TB Seagate hard drive that we have here is not anything special compared to all the other hard drives that we have seen, but thanks to the top-level motherboard, we are able to get a little bit extra out of it. Considering this drive is going to have all of your games installed for example, a faster read and write speed will see slightly faster load times of maps and scenes in your games.
