So I am looking to use an ssd via usb 3.0 enclosure to load Windows 10 to go and use with an otherwise decent work pc (hdd + restricted os rights are a pain). As I understand, trim canot be enabled/used in such case, so the questions in order of importance are as follows:
1) how much of a performance drop does an ssd experience with trim off in the average to worst case scenarios? It feels like there hardly is any info on the topic anywhere
in other words, is it crippling enough to make such usage next to useless.
2) how (much) will lack of trim affect the ssd lifespan?
3) (bonus) is usb 3.0 enclosure performance more a % of the drive quality (buy better ssd to get considerably better result) or hard capped (older ssd with half the speeds we see these days acceptable since it won't go over certain limit) ? I do understand that the usual 520/520 numbers are cut off considerably, more interested in the part where the extreme benefits over hdd show, ie random read/write
Any links to articles/tests/research on these would also help.
Thank you in advice for any details you can throw at me.
