Hi,
my brother has a Win 7 Notebook with a super small SSD (18,64 GB) that was used to hold the system only. Worked fine until he decided to switch to Win 8. Now this SSD is full with Windows. The result is that it lags rather often. Probably because there is no space for temp files.
The main purpose of the laptop is to browse the internet, write some documents and presentations. So the SSD is only there to provide a fast boot.
Is there a way to set it up like it was before? Maybe divide the system so that programs are automatically installed on the HDD and stuff like the user files and downloads are on the HDD as well? And the SSD only holds the basic system for a fast boot?
Maybe even block the SSD for direct user input, so that only the system itself can use it?
