Hi just wondering how much free space should i leave on my ssd so that performance isnt effected. Currently have the 500GB version with 465GB capacity after setup with 92.2GB remaining. Was thinking about adding Rainbow six siege from my HDD which is roughly 75GB.
Samsung 850 EVO how much free storage should i leave for best performance?

Windows will show your capacity on my computer in red when you hav only 10% left.
I calculate you will have 3% left.
Not only will the ssd slow down, trying to find free nand blocks to update, but you will also reduce your endurance quickly.
If you install a 1tb Samsung ssd, use the Samsung ssd migration aid which will be a trivially easy way to move your C drive.
It works equally well with a m.2 pcie nvme drive if you have that option.
