I love the ssd's. I only use hdd fer raid applications for say a database something constantly changing value. I do use them fer large home storage. Cheaper. Trim i didnt understand term sorry. I did see a difference just in terms of processes slight speed increase but not enough to solely switch over systemd. I get the bloatware argument. Ubuntu studio is the bloat version lol i normally always start with a xfce setup and remove and add what i need. Most jist use gnu to play around with android and linux kernel builfing so i dont require much of a system. Artix is 1.2 gb minimal so quite bloated. I havnt tried the new nvm ssd's but im going get 2 fer my sysyem when i get my bills caught up from not working then will probably build a hdd/sdd tower fer storage and security

You can use any arpeggio in either. There are no chords that can't be used, so long as they're not dissonant. What matters is how you play them and what tones surround them. There are blues songs that aren't even in a minor key. I'd suggest not boxing yourself in.

Your device is likely automatically recognized and TRIM automatically applied.

The difference between an HDD and an SSD is probably on par with the difference between an SSD and an NVMe M.2 SSD.

I dunno how accurate these stats are, but this is the first one I owned:

I now have another one in a newer device. It's a bit faster than the first one I got.

I looked it up and yeah probably was ticked on during plug and play setupon windows. That benchmark and 2 others for the nvm pci ssd those things are wicked fast and probably improve gaming so much it aint funny. Tastey fast lol.

It literally wrote all of Lubuntu to disk (from USB 3.0) in under four minutes.

There's actually a new guitar thread, if you want to abandon this ancient one. Like normal, it's stickied in the guitar sub.
