      I`m just need to know if any one is useing HB and wow installed on Samsung 850 PRO - 550MB/s Read, 520MB/s Write, 100K IOPS and if you and tell if there is any boost in performance ie loading mesh and running profiles.
      Or if any devs see this is HB optimized for ssd use?

      Also what is the min/max requiments for HB
      what will give me the best play.

      My planed pc though some might changed in feb:
      Asus RAMPAGE V EXTREME, Intel X99
      Intel Core i7 5960X Extreme Unlocked
      Dominator Platinum ram 2400HZ do not know as yet thinking around 16GB
      4GB EVGA GTX 980 SC ACX 2.0 in 2 way SLI
      1TB Samsung 850 Pro - 550MB/s Read, 520MB/s Write, 100K IOPS: just for my games
      27" Asus PG278Q ROG Swift G-Sync

      Is this seriuz or just showing off?

      You can run hb with regular sata hdds. All depends how much instances of wow + hb you want to use.


      For best play, of course not the crap you listed but this:

      SSD: Intel DC P3700 Series, several times -> Raid 0
      Board: Asus Z10PE-D8 WS
      CPU: 2x Intel Xeon E7-8890v2
      RAM: 8x 64GB Kingston ValueRAM DDR4-2133 regECC DIMM
      GPU: SLI GTX 980 just the most expensive one(<- important!)
      PSU: biggest available (the bigger the better!)

      Some 4k lcds

      + 2k for watercooling
      + some kewl colored fans
      -------------------------------------------------------------------------
      ~40k$ but hey, at least you can run some wow instances.

      Bottleneck in your system config will be the ram.

      - You can't optimize HB for ssd usage.
      - It is the other way round, an ssd optimizes your program start/load times by several times compared to classic sata hdd.
      - IOPS is nothing you have to worry about as a "consumer" end user, also hb/wow won't care if read/write speed is 300,400 or 500 MB/s.
      - Also don't rely on those speeds advertised by manufacturers a) most of the times they are slower b) it extremely depends on the file size being transfered. Most common transfered files are only some kilobytes big, for sure you will never reach 500mb/s write speeds with this drive, hands down. (You can check for some 4k write benchmarks and see for yourself)
      - Ah yeah, never use disk fragmentation tools on an ssd.
