This is a straight to the point demonstration why you should never install your games into mechanical hard drives if you are to record gaming videos with Fraps.  This comparison does not apply to other recording programs those use direct encoding into record (DXtory, Shadowplay). 

HDD: Seagate ES 2 TB 7200 rpm 64 MB C SATA3
SSD: Samsung Evo 500 GB 512 MB C SATA3
