SSDs get slower when they're near full. Only data that is on that SSD will be slowed down, so the OS files and applications on other drives should not be affected unless they store data on the near full SSD.

If you fill it up to 95% yes. Keep it under 90% preferably.

No, it won't affect the computer unless you're writing data to the SSD which is either close to full or has stale data on it that wasn't removed by Trim.
