Hi guys new to the forums, but I've been following this guy's videos for quite a long time now.
I would like, if you will, some help regarding the best practices for SSDs, I recently ordered a Samsung SSD 850 PRO 256GB, and it arrived today, so before I start the upgrade (I'll perform a clean installation of all my stuff, no migration) I would like some advice.
Like... I found the trick about deleting the hibernation file in one of Linus's videos: http://youtu.be/cdzmylEz8hU
I also read somewhere about formating only like 75% of the hard drive, leaving the other part un-partitioned so it can always run nicely.
So what do you guys think? What are the SSDs best practices?
Is there any downside to the samsung rapid mode? Do you guys use it often?
I do a fair share of computational modelling, so I'm always looking at top performance, but I'm also an student so I always go for the best bang for your buck, and I picked this baby at a nice discount.
Any help will be highly appreciated, cheers!
