Hello TH community,
I have a new computer with a Samsung Evo 850 250 gb SSD for booting the OS and games/some software, and a 2tb HDD for storage. In short, I wanted to know the following from the expert community here at TH:
1- is rapid mode worth it and how much improvement does it give over the standard mode?
2- what does rapid mode actually do vs default mode? I have seen some benchmarks that have shown recently that rapid mode gives pretty drastic speed improvements over non rapid mode but I'd like an experts technical perspective on what it actually does and if it is in fact worth it to enable on my new system install.
3- Can someone provide me with a direct link to the most updated version of Samsung's magician software, as I have a version of it installed but it looks very different than the old version I used 2 months ago, thus I want to make sure to double check that I have the most updated/correct version of the software to enable rapid mode on my computer.
4- In using the updated version of the software, it seems that they no longer have options for "OS optimization" on the newest version of the magician software (I'm running 5.0.0) at the moment and can no longer see the options for OS optimization or any OS options at all like I was able to see with the previous versions of this software. Can someone who really knows there stuff confirm this option is gone for me?
Thank you so much in advance for any help, and if you have any suggestions for how to use my new SSD, please do let me know here.
