No, it wouldn't.
Um, it's possible your hard drive is a bit slow in reading the data and getting it into memory, as it is an open world game, new objects always have to be loaded when you move around, which can cause some stuttering. Same thing with me and the STALKER games, I'm above and beyond the recommended specs, but my hard drive isn't that fast so the game still stutters.
Best option is to get a HD that reads data faster (not sure how they measure that though). Perhaps one of the solid state hard drives that are a bit expensive, but read data almost instantly.
My Hard Drive isn't slow. I have the game installed on my 120 GB SSD.
I'm sure you know, but Solid State Drives are incredibly fast when compared to HDDs.
