Has anyone done this? I just have a 120GB SSD for my gaming machine and it's obviously not enough for any big games and I'm running out of space. I'm thinking of just buying a new hard drive like a 2-3TB drive, but then I got thinking I have all this disk space on my file server that I can maybe use.

Would having a game installed on a network drive like that be too slow? Of course it kinda negates the point of a SSD but in my case the point is mostly for the OS itself. I only turn on this machine when I game so having it boot up that much faster is actually something that matters for me. Windows is a pig these days so it takes up a good chunk of it.

thnx!



I didn't find the right solution from the internet.
