The more exxy one has solid state hard drives, which are a lot faster to load shit than mechanical/normal hard drives.

I have a 128gb one in my desktop along with 2 x 1TB "normal" hard drives for media storage. You typically install the operating system and most frequently used apps/games on the solid state for faster access. Windows loads about 5-10 seconds faster etc.

SSDs also have a finite number of writes, so it's best to put things like apps on them that don't change and your data on the standard drive. But if you don't have a standard drive then it doesn't matter...

I went from an 8 year old Dell laptop to my current PC - my mind was always going to be blown with or without SSDs lol. But now that I have one, there's no going back...

I don't think it's worth $400 more for that upgrade. I only got one cause they are $130 in a desktop. You lose 512gb of space by not going for the other one, so for me it'd probably be a question of how much space I needed. Not that you can't get external hard drives but fk messing around with that.

SSD's die all the time, especially when used as an OS boot drive.

Honestly, unless you are using a computer in the field and you actually -needs- the extra few seconds ..... WTF even bother. Buy 100,000,000,999 TB's of SATA storage instead :S

Not true. HDD's actually have a higher failure rate than SSD's. I've also experienced this myself, never had to return an SSD but I've had multiple HDD's fail in the past.

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
