I have said for ages, what do I need these speeds for, well I noticed videopad seems to want to reread the entire video source file if I do anything with the file, clipping, exporting etc.

When you have a 13 gig game recording as the source file on a spindle, it is is fair to say a fast SSD would help, but I am not sure yet if I want to be using my SSD's as storage for large video recordings/edits

In my case it's for plotting Chia, I have a Dell T5810 with 128GB ram with 110GB ram disk which reduces wear on the SSD drives. I don't have enough ram in my 3900X, only 32GB but thought I'd test a ram disk out of curiosity, it was just over three times faster than the ram disk on the Dell.

On the Dell I have a couple of 2TB Firecuda 520 drives, these have 3200TBW rating IIRC, but once the cache is full it really slows down.

If you have a decent SSD it would take a very long time to wear out with 13GB files. I've always used SSDs as temporary and working storage when backing up and converting Blu-ray's to H265, never worn a SSD out yet. In fact they are fairing really well with Chia plotting that writes about 1.4TB to disc for each plot.

The two on the right are both ram disks, what's confusing?
