I just got a 1TB 850 EVO and I want to replace my old Intel 40GB SSD boot drive. I was thinking I'd just swap the drives and use the DF Installer to set it up. It's been more than a few years since I've used the installer, so questions:
- Does it support setting up TRIM on an SSD drive? - Is there anything I have to do post-install for the SSD? The current SSD is partitioned as follows: a: 700MB boot b: 32GB encrypted swapcache d: 2GB root I've configured initrd to transfer to the real encrypted root on a disk drive. For the new setup, I'd like that encrypted root to be on the SSD. At the time I built this machine, it was recommended that some unpartitioned space be left on the SSD to allow for a pool of replacement blocks. Is this still necessary with modern SSDs? Any tips on setting this up would be greatly appreciated. Tim
