I have my OS/Programs on an SSD and my files on a HDD, but mostly due to size/space considerations when I purchased the PC. Anything over a 128GB SSD was pricey at the time.

But even looking at a new machine, 3TB of SDD doesn't seem to make economic sense - I'd probably still stick with a 500GB-1TB SSD and a 2GB 7200RPM HDD and keep them separate.

I suspect recovering my files from cloud backup and migrating to a new computer will both be easier if/when I need to.
