Yo, computer nerds:
I have my SSD in and it's working awesomely. Since it's only 250GB and my old HDD is 300GB, I was going to install that in the second hard drive bay in my case. But after having this SSD in for a few days, I'm really digging the fact that it's super quiet and you can barely tell the computer is on now. With the HDD in it makes a bunch of noise from all the spinning and moving parts.
But anyway.
If I put the HDD in, will it run the entire time the PC is on, or only when I'm accessing/using it directly?
