Now we have that answered, next question!
Just having a think about this, as it is stated as "Optimised" (bearing in mind they have not officially declared so may drop that wording) and the the minimum capacity of that SSD unit is 280gb, it seems the game (taking into account the operating system and necessary space to play it) is not going to go above 200gb...? I take it they have declared SC is going to be no bigger than this? If it is and doesn't fit on a 280gb would I get a refund as it clearly wasn't optimised for SC.
And depending on the final specs of the unit, if it has been "Optimised" based on what CR says the game will need maximum, potentially we will need no faster than the slowest version of this drive can do?
Basically what i'm getting at here is this: Kryders Law is basically Moores Law for Storage, predicting a doubling of density every 13 months... If they have Optimised this SSD for SC right now, by the time SC finally comes out (estimate 4 years to put a number on it), an optimum drive will be available at bargain prices - in fact by the time the game comes out, if it is delayed for a few years, we may not be able to buy SSD's this slow by that time... If this is an optimised SSD, I will have actual numbers to monitor when it finally comes time to build my game-PC (it will only be for SC) and buy the cheapest examples of the optimum stats required...
I heavily suspect the word "Optimised" to vanish from the announcement. If the game is over 70gb I'm going to need a bigger boat.
