Hello everyone. I am completely lost on best practices for PC and handling files. I see all the issues I faced on writing speed for moving bunch of files was due to writing speed of SMR drive.

I would like to ask following question :

what type of drive should I use for data editing (encoding videos and pictures). I guess SSD but SSD drives are so expensive with low capacity within budget.
what type of drive should I use for storing finalized data ?
same question for backup.
what type of drive for gaming ?

Thank you.
