    Rather tell him to save up if he can't get a 60.

    I don't really like the cache drive angle tbh.

    Also...you can cheat a bit with link shell extension. I use it to split games over SSD and HDD. e.g. I only play MP on cod4...so I've got the MP maps on the SSD whilst the big data files are sitting on the hdd.
