Forum Storage : Hard Drives Non-OS SSD Performance with minimum free space

Hi,

I have 2 Intel X-25M SSD units in my system. One of them is 80GB, with Windows7 installed on it and it's 60% full. The second SSD is 160GB X-25M, contains only Microsoft Flight Simulator X reaching 98% full. My question is - will the FSX SSD performance drop if I fill it up to nearly 100% (it's a non-OS SSD, the W7 is on another SSD). To what extent can I stuff this SSD? I read that writing performance are dropping, is this a case for me to be concerned?

Thank you.
