Hey all. I have just ordered a brand new Crucial C300 64 GB SSD and I've read a lot about tweaking it. The only thing I'm actually confused about is the over-provisioning. I've heard that it improves SSD life and performance, but every SSD incluedes some spare space already, doesn't it? So should I over-provision my drive to, let's say, 50 GB or should I just ignore it? The drive will be only used for my Win 7 OS and just a few programs.
Also, after over-provisioning to 50 GB can I fill all that space without any performance loss or should I leave some space free?
