Good to hear :)
Having that 1000 speed sounds sexy, but in reality, not too sure we would benefit from it at this point.
I think it depends on how you use it. Maybe if you're big on torrent seeding it might get used, but other than downloading a game on Steam it hardly mattered. And even then, the download would regularly pause waiting for it to write to disk because even with SSDs they couldn't write to disk as fast as it was downloading. I think maybe it makes more sense for large households where many people will be using it at once.
We don't really find ourselves downloading much of anything - mostly just games for the partner. Everything else seems to be streamed these days. I might revisit at a later date if our habits change 👍
