Quote - Forgot to mention I have an exterior hard drive from SeaGate that backs up all my work as I go. Also back up my work for the day on a portable Seagate that is pocket size so when I leave the house, if it burns to the ground, I still have all my years of work to start over again. 15 years of scene files as well go with me. :-)

So my point is if you want to have the speed of SSD then for the love of Pete back up,

back up, back up, back up, back up, back up, back up, back up, back up, back up, back up, back up, back up, back up!  :-)

If only people would listen to this, I see a regular stream of people in the shop who have lost all their data, and a couple who have only had it retrieved by using a specialist recovery company (at a cost which would have purchased PC with a spec that could run Poser 2012 with ease).  It doesn't matter if it is a SSD or not, you need to back up as often of possible and in more than one location.

 

 

I use Poser 13 on Windows 11 - For Scene set up I use a Geekcom A5 -  Ryzen 9 5900HX, with 64 gig ram and 3 TB  storage, mini PC with final rendering done on normal sized desktop using an AMD Ryzen Threadipper 1950X CPU, Corsair Hydro H100i CPU cooler, 3XS EVGA GTX 1080i SC with 11g Ram, 4 X 16gig Corsair DDR4 Ram and a Corsair RM 100 PSU .   The desktop is in a remote location with rendering done via Queue Manager which gives me a clearer desktop and quieter computer room.
