Windows 10: Why is the system solid state SSD and HDD disk in the removal list?

Hi

Why is the system solid state SSD and HDD disk in the removal list?

:)

 

Best setup for system with both Solid State Disk (SSD) and HDD


I hope shortly to receive a "pre-owned" Dell M6800 laptop with a 128GB Solid State Disk (SSD) and a 750GB HDD.

It comes with 8.1 installed (shudder) and I will upgrade to 10 immediately as I couldn't tolerate 8 or 8.1. Once I've done that, I'll need to transfer all my applications and data (which will be tedious I know unless there's some trick or clever tool/application to do it - any suggestions are most welcome here).

Aapart from the OS what should go on the SSD, and what on the HDD. Looking at my current system, the Windows directory plus Program Files, Program Files (x86) and Program Data run awfully close to 128GB, so this isn't quite as simple as Windows & Apps on SSD, with everything else on the HDD and use junctions if necessary to point to data on the HDD.

I can't afford to replace the SSD with a bigger one as all available funds went into buying the new lappie.

Thanks lots
Dave

 

Internal Solid state disk (SSD) ?

According to this guys definition... http://windowsitpro.com/article/art...state-disks-ssds-and-why-is-it-important.html ...it seems that TRIM would wear out the drive faster because it has to rewrite the the whole block just to remove deleted information. I wonder if SSDs were one of those technologies where corporate said "oops" and needed to come out with something to slow it down and wear it out faster but just tell you it's a benifit cause sheep will eat anything.

 

Remove spare hard disk as system disk

I have SSD which is my main drive (OS installed) and listed as system disk and I also have another HDD which is my storage but also listed as a system disk. My question is how do I remove the hard disk as a system disk? By removing and keeping as system
disks make a difference?
