So I might need to get a new steam games drive soon, I looked at my current 1tb drive and it only has 287gb left. And I don't even have all of my games installed.
For a storage drive would Seagates SSHD's be good drives for secondary drives for games?
The 4tb SSHD option seems to be around $200 here:

Which is around the same price as a 4tb Cavier Black here:

But then the 3tb HDD's are half the price at around $100 here:

Do you think I would see any benefit from getting a SSHD if it's only being used for a games drive? Keep in mind I already have an SSD as my boot drive.
I kinda figure that it won't make that huge of a difference except in certain circumstances where loading might be important. But I'm not sure.
