Try editing 500 GB of movie data on a 128 GB SSD. Then
you'll see how much you'll benefit.

quite a bit actually.

the system & editing app along with the rest of the apps will be on ssd
and therefore everything will be much faster.

the movie can be on a normal hard drive.

NO normal HD. Just an SSD.


a network drive on the other hand, is where i'd put a 3tb drive.

Sure. And you're using WLAN. Have fun even getting close to the
10 MB/s 100MBit Ethernet offers.

i must be having a lot of fun then.

802.11n easily beats 100base-t

Yes, it does, if you talk about brutto transmission data in
optimal circumstances.

nope. standard normal day to day usage.

Let me guess: close distance, only 1 thin wall, only one active client
at a time.

Standard normal day to day usage is gigabit ethernet.


Promise me to never measure transmitted data in the real world,
you'd be in for a big disappointment.

i have, and i'm not disappointed at all. 802.11n is quite comfortable.

.... on a 30 MBit internet connection.


and 802.11ac has gigabit speeds.

By the time that's adapted widely we'll have 10-100 GB on cable.

cables are very last decade

You are very last century.


and most people don't need 100gb networks
anyway.

Yep, people keep saying that. 640k is enough for everyone.


if a laptop only has ssd, then the swap *is* there.

So your laptop doesn't have "only" SSD.

very few laptops have two drives.

Most do. Yes, you can swap out the second drive for a DVD or
blue ray.

most laptops do *not* have two hard drives, however, some people might
swap *out* the internal dvd drive (not in) for an ssd, if there is an
internal dvd drive at all, that is.

"very few laptops have two drives." - "internal dvd drive"

you guessed wrong. 3-4 clients, sometimes through a wall.

obviously, if i go far enough away the performance drops, but that's
easily fixed with another base station if it turns out to be an actual
problem.

Standard normal day to day usage is gigabit ethernet.

not for mobile devices such as tablets and laptops, it isn't. wireless
is where it's at.

i'm not talking about the internet connection.

i'm talking about transferring files between machines or servers.

Yes, 3-4 inactive clients, one active client, a thin wall.

Which is very near ...

Maybe for you since you only use a DSL or cable modem, everyone
else is at gigabit ethernet, because it's 10 times faster.
