Hello all,
I consider myself pretty knowledgeable about computer in general. However I do have to admit that SSDs are one thing that Im not really on the up and up about yet. Ive heard from a couple different people that the amount of space used on an SSD will effect its life span. Ive searched other forums and websites and have found conflicting answers and opinions on this.
Right now I am using 104 GB of my 180GB Intel SSD leaving 62.4 GB free (after partitioning and everything else that zaps a bit of space before anything is even put on it.) My question is, should I be concerned? Should I look at taking some stuff off of it? Or is it fine the way it is, and how much more space could I safely use if any?
This drive is in my Dell Latitude E4310 laptop which has only one HDD/SSD bay.
