HDD vs SSD

What is the advantage more then loading time between an HDD and a SSD if any ? In POE for instance what would the difference be ?
Might be the wrong forum for this sort of questions.

Here is a post i made about it on Xbox - https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2311960.

Hopefully it will help you.

I am still using that same SSD with no issue.

I seemed to have less problems than my party members during the last 2 league (crash wise). Could be due to my internet being 1 GBs VS there sub 200 MBs.

I'm on XBOX, and from my experience, load times were the only difference I saw on my Day One edition OG after adding the SSD.

I do not experience really any crashing at all, tbh. My net is 450Mbps, but I do not think that really affects the crashing at all.

On my wife's One X, using a SSD still only decreased load times.

Performance had been about the same otherwise.

For Legion, I played a CoC Cyclone and VIN Assassin, with Vortex, IN, and Frost Bomb. It's essentially a lag generator. There were no noticeable performance increases outside of load times for my particular build.

Only 100 on fiber? Seems a bit low, it should allow up to 1000 (1GBs). I might be going a bit overboard with mine, and it is in no way required for the average person / gamer. Anything over 200 I think would be good.

The house that I live in got the fiber converters upgraded to a gbline recently but it's to pricy for me . I've never had an issue playing online game on it before so I see no reason to upgrade it .
