Is it ok to use hdd for games?

Are games on hdd better than nvme?

Answer: NVME allows games to boot up much faster (up to 2-3 times) than those on traditional drives. Your games will load faster on NVME and won't waste time moving from the menu to the game itself. If you are a gamer that plays online, you may notice that your game loads much faster than other players and less stuttering.

Do ps4 games run better on ps5 hdd?

Can i play games from hdd?

Answer: HDDs and SSDs both work well for gaming. If the HDD has enough capacity to store your games (modern games range from 20GB up to 180GB for a single installation), and is fast enough to support the graphics, you shouldn't have troubles. Where HDDs do not do as well as SDDs for gaming is in load times.
