I'm assembling a PC for my partner, who's not too tech-savvy either. The setup I'm looking at comes with a 128GB SSD and a 1TB hard drive. Since he'll mostly be playing older games like WoW and Star Wars: The Old Republic, I'm wondering if I should upgrade the SSD for a better experience. Is the current size enough for gaming, or will I run into performance issues down the line?

What are you specifically looking to buy? It's not clear from your description if it's a good deal or not. But just FYI, 128GB is really small for any gaming PC. I'd suggest at least 500GB.
You should definitely go for a larger SSD, especially if you want to store games on it. A typical gaming setup today usually has at least a 1TB SSD instead of relying on an HDD.
Yes, upgrading the SSD is a smart choice. Do you know what type of SSD is currently in the setup?
It only shows as a 2.5" SSD with 128GB. Not sure if that helps.
