I have some questions about using Ubuntu with an SSD that I hope ubuntu developers can answer for me. I've researched online but do not know how best to proceed as there seems to be differing advice. I see it mentioned online that I should mount with DISCARD. But an article from OpenSUSE says DISCARD is not good to use. <br>http://opensuse.14.n6.nabble.com/SSD-detection-when-creating-first-time-fstab-td3313048.html<br><br>Here are my questions<br>1.) are there any issues I should be aware of if using ubuntu on an SSD? Is ubuntu primarily intended to be used on HDD and not recommended for SSD?<br><br>2.) do you recommend TRIM be used for SSD with ubuntu? <br><br>3.) If you do recommend TRIM be used, how should TRIM be setup? Automatic wiping, or manual wiping? FITRIM, FSTRIM, or DISCARD? <br><br>I really don't understand any of this in depth, so I'm very thankful for any direction/guidance you can provide.<br><br>Thank you so much,<br>Nicholas<br><br><br>By the way, I explored wiki.ubuntu.com but couldn't find info on SSDs I was looking for.<br></div> </div> </div></body> </html>
