For one, chances are your HDD size was significantly smaller than your current one.

Yet HDDs were also much slower than SSDs

Not really in terms of reading a massive amount of tiny files.

Of course SSDs are still much faster reading massive amounts of tiny files than HDDs are. Obviously random read speeds are much, much better, but even sequential reads of tiny files are a lot faster.
If you disagree, please provide numbers or references.

I love the “you’re wrong and if you disagree provide sources” while not providing any sources yourself lol. Amazing.
