Historical data is very small and really not of enough consequence to be of any concern. It is intraday charts that take up the most disk and memory space. But it sounds like you have that well under control.

Sierra Chart does do a lot of reading and writing to disk. So SSD drives, especially the fastest you can get, can definitely help.

And you may want to look into using multiple instances to help offload some processing. It does not sound like you have a lot, but if you are seeing issues, then this may be one particular way to help with that. This is covered in the section we linked you to.
For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service:
