The Windows Phone division has been a failure too. Microsoft said it a few years ago already: Windows 10 will be their last Windows. At that time, they just couldn’t say Linux will be their next OS. Microsoft is, for many years already, one of the most prolific contributors to the Linux Kernel.
Is Windows 10 doing the right thing with SSDs?
Windows 10 is doing the right thing with SSDs. You should not “optimize” it. In fact your attempts at “optimizing” might cause problems. Here is some information from someone that has actually talked to those people you think don’t have a clue:.
Windows 10 does not need to be optimized for a SSD.
Does Windows 10 run faster on SSD?
As a Solid State Drive (SSD) has been available for years, Microsoft has done a lot of work to make Windows 10 run fast with SSD. If you just transfer operating system (OS) to SSD without SSD optimization in Windows 10, you may not get the best performance that an SSD can provide.
With Windows 10, Microsoft added the Optimize Drives feature which runs the TRIM command on your SSD to ensure that it’s being done. TRIM ensures that deleted files are wiped from the SSD so that future incoming writes will perform at peak levels.
If Windows is recognizing the drive as an SSD in the Optimize Drives control panel, then it should be left alone to automatically optimize once a week. Windows 10 will run TRIM on the SSD needed to keep the drive running – well optimally. Windows WILL also defrag the SSD.
