I used a hammer drill when I had framed my basement wood interior walls and wanted to anchor them to the concrete floor using Tapcon bolts. I used a regular drill/driver to anchor those same walls to the ceiling joists (which were in fact the floor joists of the first floor of my home).

A hammer drill is a for tool specific work, not everyday drilling & driving.

Aymee....the original DeWalt set you posted of a drill/driver & impact combo is a good one!

First of all, Don't worry what I recommend.
