Subject: Re: NUC as new drive?
If all you want is an extra drive for your PC then just get an extra drive.
How much data/files are you planning to put on this SSD ?
The closer an SSD gets to being full, the faster it starts wearing out.

If you are going to make it a Nas, I would put a bigger drive in it.. think
of the nuc as a mini PC that you can dedicate to some task, whether it's a
Nas, a home theater, or an everyday system for browsing and reading mail.

I wouldn't recommend it for gaming. Though it could probably run some
simple games.
