Hi everyone
I got my copy of Windows 8 off Dreamspark several days ago and I decided to try it on my notebook. Well, first of all I must say that I really like the way it's quicker and neater than Seven.
but considering that quite everything I use is desktop-based, I tried different ways to bypass the Modern UI Start screen and stay on the desktop as much as possible (at least for now).
Eventually I decided to create a shortcut to "shutdown /h" and pin it to the taskbar where Seven formerly had the orb (so I could just hibernate the system by clicking once on it).
Now, this is the question: seeing that I use hibernation 3/4 times per day, and that Windows 8 is installed onto a Samsung 470 SSD...
Does the lifespan of the disk get significantly shorter (because of the limited rewrite cycles supported by the SSD drives) if I use hibernation instead of the normal shutdown?
I believe not, but any advice/suggestion would be very appreciated!
Tnank you in advance!
