it will be slightly sharper for reads and writes, but honestly, it wont make enough difference to account for.

hard drives are on a technology brink now.

solid state drives, which dont have a spinning metal disk, instead its just like a big ram storage area, are becoming more popular and cheaper.

THAT, is the change you should be looking for. The cache size is meaningless these days, its just not significant enough to put cash on. Ignore it.

keep your money, become familiar with solid state drive sizes vs cost, dont spend anything until the game actually comes out.
