Systems Comparison

Looking at the spec of the Titan and it’s price, it is great to see that Braebo have introduced the power of the SSD into this area of the market. Now obviously we shouldn’t be expecting top-level speeds, nor capacity – the 64GB drive that we get here is more suited to running as a boot drive with some core applications installed with everything else (including games) running from the 1TB HDD.
