Excellent idea. I'd add a 2T "spinner" drive from Newegg for $38. I'd put one of the popular Linux distros on it (free). I'd configure it to put the OS on the SSD and /home (aka user files) on the 2T drive.

That's basically the setup I run - Core i5, 8GB memory, 128G SSD for the OS (KDE Neon), /home on a WD 1T drive, Gigabyte motherboard...

Which speed, BTW, i read partly depends on how much free space is left.

I think the profile files for the browser should be on the SSD, and ram upped to 16GB. BTW, I found Firefox ESR being much faster by doing this: Speed Up Firefox by Moving Your Cache to RAM, No RAM Disk Required
