I have recently upgraded hardware on my desktop. The major change is that I installed a new Solid State Drive as my drive C:. I think I also read somewhere that these drives "don't like" being written on too much and that one needs to enable/disable certain OS features for such drives.
So I checked the properties for the drive C in Windows 8 and here's what I got:
As you see "Allow files on this drive to have contents indexed in addition to file properties" is checked.
Does it need to be checked for that drive?
And also, is there anything else that I need to change in the settings to accommodate for the SSD?
