How much will an SSD help Anthem's load times compared to a hard drive?

Prey’s initial load took between 53 seconds and 1minute 13 seconds through a hard drive, and 37 seconds when shifted to an SSD. Loading a save game dropped from 15-19 seconds to six seconds.

A new video has surfaced, which shows comparison between SSD and HDD load times for Bethesda’s latest title, Fallout 4.

Do note, to get the most out of PS4 titles on PS5, the games have to be installed on the PS5’s SSD. You can still play PS4 games off an external HDD, but you won’t get the load time benefits.

Anthem has had some problems with loading times on HDDs, and even if these issues are optimized, you'll still want to play it on an SSD for the best performance on PC.

The SSD is a Samsung EVO 250, and the HDD is a Toshiba DT01ACA300 3TB. You can also check out our comparison of Fallout 4 running on a GTX 570 compared to a GTX 970 here.
