Suggestions for using a 120 gig SSD

AnirbanG007

I have a spare 120 gig dramless SSD lying around, it's the BX500 from Crucial. Any ideas on how to make good use of聽it?

I occasionally edit videos, and I don't really play games on my laptop. I already have an external HDD for storing things, and my boot drive is an MX500.

Save it, put it on display, use it as more storage, I don't know.

they are barely worth anything considering you get a brand new for like 20$

It's worth a lot in India. I mean 20 usd is a lot (depending on the context ofc). I'm sure I'll get customers if I look for one. 馃槢

well, i have the same exact ssd, it's really good for the price, i think you should keep it, maybe for fast access files (like video editing you mentioned) or secondary OS

Yeah, a Secondary OS, that's actually a very good idea. I might as well plonk Pop OS in there and try out different Linux distros, or edit videos off of it.
