Hello is 128GB ssd on a laptop enough?

[michael1337]

In buying a laptop for someone, he uses it for school, watches videos, playes small games and I guess plays Minecraft or something on it?


The laptop I chose has 128GB SSD and I was wondering, is this decent? Or is this like a huge rip off and can you like not do anything with it?

I mean its better than the 32GB laptops but it stills 128GB storage.

Thank you

both of those have celeron cpus for 350 euros i would have thought an i3 should be doable

My stepson just bought a Lenovo laptop at WorstBuy.
17", i5-6200U, 8GB RAM.
$450 = 410 euro.

An i3 something should fit in that 350 euro budget.

yes i would have thought so though dollars to pounds/euros doesnt reflect the fact that hardware is quite a bit cheaper in the usa

but from here in the uk to the netherlands i would have actually expected the netherlands to get a bit more than i would here

certainly stuff i have looked at on highflow.nl i can buy it and pay for shipping to the uk and its still cheaper than buying it here

but guess if you insist on one specific laptop maker you arent doing yourself any favours really

If mincraft is the only program then it should be ok assuming nothing else is downloaded. I know in windows land updates can fill up storage space quickly which is why I always need 500 gigs or more in windows.
