That's really good to know, thank you @Scott and @AgentCooper.
Is it a bad idea to get a 1 TB M2 drive (I was going to go for the Intel not PCS one to be faster) as my main storage device? Is there some reason for you switching to a HDD in your suggestion, @Scott?

That's interesting, thanks for your advice Scott. Bit more than I would have liked to spend but something I could justify. I do like the look of the NZXT H511 case in white & with the window but the Fractal one may be worth it for the quietness, but I haven't got a sense of how much difference...
