Pretty obvious it is; iBuypower. Interesting a 2TB HDD is chosen; how cheap was it compared to a 1 or 2TB SSD?

The 1t ssd would cost me 60$ extra, Keep in my I'm form canada so I think i have to change currencies.
I also checked out this alienware gaming pc, Pretty solid but the taxes hit hard

Nothing wrong with iBuypower. Years ago it was more known for being a budget brand builder, but nowadays, I've seen them becoming more and more of a trusted and reliable brand. And yeah, the taxes and foreign exchange costs hurts. Just keep in mind that the HDD swapped for an SSD would be the first, likely replacement I would suggest, once you have a need for it. I rely on my hard drives more for mass storage for old photos that I'm not editing.

The combo of a nice fast nvme and a mass HDD is actually pretty good. The boot being on the ssd allows the hard drive to not get so bogged down, assuming you defrag it occasionally.

Unless you are running windows 8 or older. having to defrag manually is no longer necessary. Windows now does it automatically.
