SSD is shock resistance compared to HDD but both can fail.

Always go both. I have both SSD and HDD. SSD is only for applications, games and OS (1 TB is barely enough for my games). HDD is for the rest of your junk (movies, porn, music, downloads, etc.). For backup, just use cloud, Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive. My games are backed up by Steam, music is backed up on Google Music. Oh you wanna backup your movies?

Can use 128GB for boot drive and applications, cost less than $100.

HDD last longer. IF SSD fail, your data will be gone for good. The technology is some sort like thumb drive. SSD is chipset on a pcb board where as HDD is disk drive.

I still using HDD leh.

Still using HDD here, but mainly for storage only. Recently tried using a AIO that came with a mechanical drive. In less than a week, the mechanical drive is out and replaced with an SSD.

Basically, when I first power on the rig, it went into an update frenzy and everything else was crawling. Can't stand it.
