SSD internal laptop hdd
by andrewysk from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5J4YK)
I wanted to separate out my linux hdd to single boot instead of dual boot in my laptop (which currently 1 hdd for win os and linux os ; the 2nd internal hdd is for data only - due to volume issue).
I check 1Tb internal (laptop form factor) is only 60Euro, not expensive, but ssd is significantly expensive.
I hve never use a ssd before, but i have read and heard so much pro and con of ssd. \
I am wondering should i go for it ? i don't play game, but i do have a lot of multi media file (not video editor that sort of "a lot").
Why i scare to use ssd as even today.. is because they said ssd then to "tear" very easily, especially if got swap installed in ssd. because swap file do a lot of read write (while ssd to limited read / write cycle before failing ).
And i don't know how diff is it to setup a new linux on ssd, especially to avoid wear and tear...
Anybody advice please ?
thanks
