My bro told me they annoced that its a 100% requirement im just seeing if that is true. I would like a blue post to make sure of that if hes wrong or right.
its a minimum requirement so no if u want top quality performance then yes you would need one.

It’s listed as a minimum requirement, yes. That likely means that anything else will simply not be supported. As in, you contact Blizz saying that it takes forever for the new zones/dungeons/raids to load and you can’t figure out why! Their first question might be “Do you have an SSD?” If not, they likely would simply tell you that’s part of the minimum specs, so go get one.
But will the game still load, I imagine it still will and that it will simply take longer.
Will Blizz put in a hardware check to force it, that’s not known at this time, but it’s highly unlikely.

There was already a blue post, in the other thread you posted in before this one.

You are NOT going to be locked out of the game if it doesn’t find a SSD. Shadowlands will run fine if you are still using a hard drive. You’ll just get 20 seconds of load times between instances, if that.
