Baldur’s Gate 3 is currently taking up all the storage space I would give to Bethesda’s sci-fi RPG.

        The bottom of the barrel SSDs lack things like DRAM cache and perform worse than hard drives. $35 is not enough for a terabyte of gaming storage just yet.

        Still, for $40 you can get 500GB of storage which should cover Starfield, Baldur’s Gate 3, and a bunch of other games.
