Hey All!
Long time no see!
Hey, I'm getting a new SSD for the first time like 5+ years (a: Samsung SSD 860 EVO 1TB 2.5 Inch SATA III Internal)
Do the new SSD's, should the paging file still be moved to a different drive (platter drive) to prevent wearing or have they fixed that?
Thanks!

Re: Yet Another SSD Question!
It is fine to leave it on the SSD, if you even need to use the paging file it makes the PC much more responsive to have it on a SSD than on a mechanical disk. The wear leveling on modern drives will keep things healthy for hundreds of years of normal usage. Also with 16 GB of RAM windows won't even be using the paging file that much, just leave all settings related to it on auto.
