Or any other Linus's video that comes up when u type "ssd optimization Linus tech"

 

IMO the best performance increase on a hdd is disk defrag.

Automatic scheduled disk defrags are a feature in literally every modern OS.

Havent used that feature. I prefer doing it myself when I feel it's necessary. I only do it once or twice a year (hdd for storage not OS).

It is never necessary if you let the OS automatically keep it up.

Very simple! Install Windows 10, install your drivers, and your done!

Windows 10 will take care of everything automatically.

 

Any "optimization" that you may read online, is just total crap.

 

The only thing you can do, is disable the startup delay feature as you have an SSD. Basically, when Windows loads your account, normally, it loads your startup background programs (like Steam, Skype, A/V, etc. that you might have). Since Windows 8, Microsoft added a fake delay, to allow Windows to fully load on systems with an HDD or slow SSD (like tablets with eMMC memory), so that the experience for the user is fully loaded, and can interact with the system while startup background programs are loaded.

Sadly, it doesn't detect your system SSD speed to decide if it should disable it or not.

 

All you have to do, for each account on your system (if multiple of them), go to:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Serialize

Then double click on: Startupdelayinmsec

And set the value to 0, and log-out and log-back in, or restart your system.
