Re: SSD settings for Wheezy

[Julien Groselle <julien.groselle@gmail.com>]

Hi John,

Take a look on this : https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/FAQ#Is_Btrfs_optimized_for_SSD.3F

By the way, on my laptop, I have just one SSD, and I use btrfs on root with /tmp and /var/log on tmpfs (RAM) to avoid simultaneous multiples write on SSD.

I never switch off my laptop, I put it in standby or Hibernate mode... so I never loss any logs... 

For me and my use, it is the best way to take care of my SSD.

Hello debian-user,

On Wheezy with ext4, do I need to make some specific settings that can possibly lengthen the life of my SSD or otherwise improve performance? My SSD has TRIM support enabled but I am not sure if I need to have OS support for that also..

Any recommended settings?? I tried searching but they are tooo many so I m not sure which ones to use or not.
