Hello!
Just finished installing Windows 7 U SP1 x64 on a 120GB Intel x25m drive. I'm familiar with Windows' behavior creating that 100MB system reserved partition and I deleted it and left the space as unallocated. I was left with a 111GB partition and continued Windows installation on it.
My question is, would it hurt partitioning a SSD drive, like 50GB for the system partition and the rest for other data? The reason I'd want to do that is backups. I would like to create frequent system partition images and I want them small (I used to have a 1TB system partition before : D, big mistake).
Does it conflict with any special SSD features like TRIM and such?
