Eh? 2005 has nothing to do with anything.
In 2016, magnetic HDDs are not purchased at 2005 prices.
In 2016, a 250GB magnetic HDD costs vastly less than a 250GB
SSD.
In 2016, you can even get a 1TB HDD for less than a 250GB SSD.
Even in 2.5".
I tried to tell that the SSD technology becomes cheaper and
cheaper, as the magnetic disks during the previous decade.
In 2016, 250GB is quite small as far as general-purpose PC
storage goes.
Because general purpose PC users more or less suffer of digital
hoarding (videos & games & music accumulation).
