if 500gb ssd and i partition it to 400gb and leave 100gb unused. the lifespan & speed can maintain longer then full partition 500g or die faster due to limited range ?
its read/write cycle.. not the space...
based on logic.. if you have e.g 100TB of data to write.. if you write to 400GB instead to 500GB.. then yes, you tend to fail faster as each sector is written more on 400GB
Hi, Just bought my laptop and was wondering what's the max capacity of the M.2, slots. But I read somewhere online that there is no limits for M.2 slots?
i dont think so.. and currently the max consumer wide availability is 2TB
the sweet spot is 500GB (ard RM300_+)
so if you plan to insert between 500GB-1TB ; 99% no issue.. especially on new laptops
gen 3 and gen 4 generally have the same loading time for windows. for games hard to notice......just a small differences... hard to notice few videos in youtube..
looks like 0.1sec difference... not worth upgrading it then..
Direct storage is only for gaming, for win11 they didnt announce anything new to bootup windows. maybe is possible that in the future, direct storage will also work with sata ssd and pcie 3? Then all gen of IO can also benefit by that.

maybe.. maybe not... or there will be newer architecture with better protocol that allow directstorage to be more utilized.. hard to say... too many things that evolve, hard to catchup all at one time
After playing few round of games ; HWinfo shows the read speed MAX is only 350MB/s ; while in Disk Benchmark shows SX8200Pro can get 3000MB/s
Looks ; it only use 10% of throughput to load windows & games
no. you should know that those benchmark numbers are based on a set of controlled scenarios, meant for comparison purposes.
in real world usage, especially for home/office/gaming, which consists of random 4k read/write, and involve mainly small files, the speed (in MBps) will not reach its peak in these operations. even if you compared the same between good sata and nvme ssd, differences are not really significant.
well.. aside from bragging rights or big e-penis
What's the point of going for fast speed nvme.. or gen 4.. if most if not all applications cant even utilize it
