Goddammit, i had read like 10 pages in different sites about TRIM, and could not understand what exactly TRIM does, now with 5~10 words from Luke and some very basic images, i finally got it! Thank you SIR!
Horizon Foz So Kingston offering is the cheap one and Samsung's EVO is a bit better? (I really wonder if any company would screw up basic stuff like handling TRIM)
If you're planning on switching to an SSD, Windows 7 and newer support TRIM out of the box. If you're running Linux, EXT4 and BTRFS support TRIM but need the 'discard' mount flag for the TRIM command to be used.
Crontax Then you're screwed. If you used Spotify a while ago, you're even more screwed. Also, disable any virtual memory in your system settings, because that's basically write spam.
+littlegrabbiZZ9PZA how did i not think of that?! i had set over 10gb virtual memory on my ssd. Today i checked how much data was written on it ssd and its over 6tb fml, i probably wrote less than 1tb
Well Hard Drives will always be 500x better as they don't wear out so fast unlike SSD Drives that become unusable after only about 5 years rendering a Laptop totally useless
@@stephensnell5707 Stephen. Not only did I make this comment over 6 years ago now, but you're also wrong. The claim that hard drives are "500x" better than SSDs is nonsensical. And the idea of SSDs wearing out is related to how much you write, and even then, I've been blasting my SATA SSD since 2016 and it's still going strong. It is known by now that SSDs are also generally more reliable than hard drives which are prone to mechanical failure. Not only that, but Laptops especially almost always support replacement of the SSD, should it fail against odds or have reached the end of its lifespan, it can easily and by now very cheaply be replaced by a new one. I don't know if you accidentally bought too many HDDs or had an SSD fail prematurely on you, but I advise that you get over your trauma and face the facts rather than judging something as binary as computer parts with your feelings.
could you guys do a LTT or Techquickie video about what makes a motherboard better or worse for overclocking? Don't know much about it and I'm curious what I should be looking for
your network controller on the motherboard prioritizes online gameplay connection over your download. your Lan sends information in sets of packets with each packet belonging to a certain network based task. you have packets for gaming in your case and packets for downloading. your network controller sorts out the two and puts them in order according to the sorting method it is programmed with. some available software tells the controller to send/recieve more packets from a game application than packets from other tasks that are internet based. allowing you to game online while downloading updates with minimal impact to your latancy.
Usually your analogies are on point and something i would never even think of but the toolbox one was kinda loose and weak. I still love the channel and learned something in the video despite the analogy.
I do not understand what is the difference between STALE and DELETED data? If controller doesn't know which files are deleted, then which data is marked as "stale"? Also, If data can be marked as "deleted" only by TRIM, than how does SSD operate without TRIM, how does it know which data can be erased without TRIM telling it?
Stale Data is the Unmarked data that's not valid, it doesn't matter if we overwrite it. Once we write it, the SSD keep a record of it and copy and Rewrite it on each erase cycle On the OS side, when we delete the File, it simply deletes the information about the File and the Actual Data is never changed, so the SSD always think that valid unless we send a TRIM command and Tell SSD that it's Marked to be deleted and not to bother copying it and rewritting it so it increases speed and reduces wear on Flash Chips
Now why it's necessary to keep have rewritting the data is due to limitation of Flash Technology that you have to delete an entire chunk of data or Pages before writing anything to it and A Block can Contain many such (usually 4KB) pages, so to write in a Block, you copy all VALID Pages, erase the block and then Rewrite it with new data. SSD won't copy Stale Pages but it might still copy Valid Data that is marked as Deleted by The OS but the Controller doesn't know about it yet unless a TRIM command is sent to it, then it mark them as Stale. HDDs basically Have Infinite Write cycles so the sectors are simply overwritten without much care unlike SSDs with limited write cycles
It really depends on how you use it. My SSD already has over 7 years and works perfectly fine (it's only used for OS and all files I download are saved on HDD)
I'm buying a PC that has and Athlon x4 and a Radeon RX 460 with 8 gb ram, will it be good for playing games like space engineers? (a big survival game kinda like ark with different planets and stuff)
Definitely Not Dan Yeah I had no idea these guys were alt-right racist holocaust deniers! And since I'm a white male, and thus all of the above, they are clearly friends of mine!
I have a dumb question: Currently on my computer, there is a boot drive with the OS and the drivers. Theoretically speaking, if I never update anything, and only read off it, will the SSD last forever (meaning for a much longer time than what is expected)?
SSDs nearly have an Infinite Read cycles so if you never write anything to it, Theoretically Yes But the OS would still write tiny bits of Data so it's kinda hard
My hp omen 15 ax203na was super slow when booting and opening browsers or doing anything, like i had to give 10 minutes to warm up. It serious pissed me off. I got angry took it apart, i thought maybe its overheating or throttling needs cleaning, then i found an empty m.2 slot! Put one in from adata xgp 8200 pro, which is clearly overkill because the slot is limited to sata 3 and not pcie as i thought. Anyway after migration, my laptop is pure lightning.
Doubt it. The controller is an integrated circuit. Pretty much the only way you can DIY an IC is using an FPGA. FPGAs are orders of magnitude slower and more power hungry than ASICs, so no matter how good your design, a DIY SSD controller is pretty much guaranteed to be much worse than even the shitties commercial controller on the market.
Actually it's the Float gate if I'm not Mistakend that actually stores the Data even without power, Basically You either put electrons in or pull out of it to create a logic levels. Now Read is not a Major issue it's the Write that wears the Flash EEPROM This Float Gate is not perfect and a few electrons can either leak or stay and accumulate over each write cycle and soon there will be so many electrons that there will no difference between 0 and 1 making the memory cell useless HDD or even Cassette Tapes modify magnetic orientation on a Physical disk or tape and this giving them Theoretically infinite read-write cycles but they are still Prone Mechanical failures and limitations like speed and atmospheric pressure
I think that's more of a joke from you, but before anyone else reads this and takes it as pure truth, I'll say something to that: SSDs can last way longer than four years. You can only write X amount of times on a single cell, so after riding a lot of data, you won't be able to use that specific cell anymore. The controller is caring about that so it doesn't use the same cells all the time, so the cells are getting 'used up' at the same rate. Then, IIRC, SSDs have some cells that aren't typically used. They are used when a different cell dies, they are replacements to increase the overall life of the SSD. Generally, you shouldn't be worried about the lifetime of your SSD as a private user (unless maybe you are a crazy enthusiast), because you'll run out of space before your drive dies. I think Intel says their SSDs will last after writing 100GB of data every day for 5 years (so 1825 days). 100GB are two AAA games. If you have such a strong data usage, you probably will upgrade your drives in these 5 years anyway.
Please add spanish subtitles, I love your vídeos and I want to share them with My father but he doesnt speak a word of english So... U get the idea. Btw its easier now to translate a video with the new yt update So it might be easier for you :)
Not the optimal solution, but an idea until they add subtitles: Watch the video beforehand, then show it to your father and translate it (easier than live translating because you can prepare beforehand). That's roughly what I do.
2 thigs: 1. Unless you have an industrial grade SSD (which physically have up to twice as much memory as what they allow you to use), never fill up an SSD completely. When you do, you're basically disabling wear leveling and the few free pages you have left will be used over and over and the SSD will die very quickly (trust me, I killed an SSD like that). I'd recommend leaving about 30% of your SSD as unallocated space (that way you don't have to worry about leaving free space on your partition). 2. EVO or PRO? There's no evo 850 pro.
Vince Baker yea but that way they just make 2.5 for lappstops and pc same time, also m.2 2tb drives are small af even curret 2.5 drives dont phiscally fill the inside
+Vince Baker because the standard maker wanted them in a laptop +IndowinFTW yeah though M.2 drives in consumer machines are not put to 100% for even a minute while Prosumers might they will also know about the heat issue and have a solution to it either better air flow or a small but effective heat sink + fan pasted onto the drive after buying it and finding the hottest parts and business servers use something else as a M.2 drive does not have any redundancy features to use without losing all the benefits of using a M.2 drive the M.2 drive is a great sells pinch drive but in actual working environments it has little to no use because of price for the amount of space given, maximum space in a single drive stick, only up to 2 M.2 drives on the motherboard before it would get into an expansion card in turn be cheaper and colder to run for a on server board hard drive storage of the current work load before moving it back to the storage server using SAS, SATA or a proprietary connector and of course heat to get rid of while running in a around heat emitting parts from all the other components in the server environment
The more flash cells, the more complex the controller would have to be. It would get to the point where it wouldn't be any reason to add more cells as the controller itself would become more expensive and complicated to develop and manufacture than the cells itself.
Not quite, in Defragmentation, The Data on sectors which are fragmented everywhere on disk are copied and stores in continuous successive sector freeing small unused sectors and reducing head travel distance. This can ruin an SSD as it distributes data to Level the wear across all flash chips TRIM basically tells SSD what parts of Memory are marked as Deleted and not to copy them in buffer during the garbage Collection and reducing data needed to be rewritten
Ashngoy Uchiha from what i know, an ssd can hit its limit and still work for years the limit is like the food's expiration date it's still good but it has reached its limit it doesn't mean the ssd will just die, but you can start having problems with it that said, it's advisable to back data up, ofc but it won't just be useless, it's still going to work i might be wrong tho, and i'd be glad if someone corrected me
Well Yes Actually no Everytime you write anything on an SSD, it stores or releases Electrons from the Float Gate of the Transistor, however some Electrons can get captured and accumulate overtime. At one point you won't be able to distinguish the difference between 0 and 1 and your data will be lost. However, mostly Manufacturers Suggests the Maximum write cycles for still readable data, so if you hit the Write limit you can still read it without issues, but it may effect the flash chips so it's recommended to clone it into a new one at that point and retire the old SSDs
@@lolesloloes6032 Well Yes but actually no, that's only if the limit is suggested for still readable data, if the given limit is the the true limit, then it's no longer possible to distinguish between 0 and 1 in Flash Chips and you would lose your data. And even if it's readable, clone it already because it won't run for anymore cycles than absolutely needed
More and more cells would start not working, so the controller would have less and less cells to work with, which would mean the performance would descrese as well the capacity. Very soon the system would stop working completely, because of data losses, which would cause corrupted data.
Windows 10, 8.1,8,7 all have trim command and you do not need anything else. If you don't have an OS with trim, There are lots of utilities from the SSD makers themselves or 3rd party that all provide the command.. There is no "BEST" when it comes to the trim command, You support it or you don't. Unless you mean what's the best overall facility? Have I just gone mad with this reply? :P
hey guys, I just did actually do a optimization for my 840 evo ssd and managed to do something which caused it to use 100% of activity all the time. I would love if some one is able ot help me with this. I used the samsung magician thing for it. Please if anyone can help me that would be absolutely awesome!
cuz it's not the same technology. Ram is volotile memory, that is it only stores data while powered on. Ssds use flash storage, the same as sd cards, flash drivers, and also the storage in you cellphone. I'm pretty sure tech quickie has videos to explain both in more detail.
all SSDs have a controller inside the device then another one on the motherboard or controller card to connect to get the data to read and/or write to the drive so the speed of the drive is limited to the max of those 2 controllers working together and always goes at fast as the slowest part
i installed a samsung ssd onto my 9 year old asus gaming motherboard which doesnt support AHCI to take full advantage of the ssd however i have set os provisioning and maximum reliability for performance using samsung magician. is this good enough to make the ssd last for years on end? i barely use my gaming tower now tho so i'll just have it mostly for storage shelf life.
depends on how big it is as a 1TB drive will last a while while the 128GB drive will fill up quickly if your kid does gaming, downloads and/or makes videos, audio files, pictures, and/or any combination of the above
+Horizon Foz The SMART lifespan is a bullshit number. I had 2 SSDs die on me and both were reporting 98% good. That number only counts total data written, it doesn't take into account actual wear of individual pages in the flash memory or, more importantly, the expected lifespan of other components (like capacitors) in the SSD. Unless you're writing hundreds of gigabytes of data onto the SSD every day, that's what's going to kill it.
***** I don't remember the exact models anymore, but the first one was a 90GB OCZ from 2011 (died after 4 years of moderate use in a desktop) and the second one was a 256GB M.2 SATA ADATA from 2014 (died after year and a half in a laptop; again, nothing heavy). The OCZ was probably my fault, I ran it with very little free space (and that's probably what killed it, because it ran normally, but would completely freeze up when accessing certain sectors), but the ADATA was just completely out of the blue (on that one, the controller died).
I swear to god Luke, if there is salad dressing in my new SSD I'm gonna be blaming you...

I think that's more of a joke from you, but before anyone else reads this and takes it as pure truth, I'll say something to that:
SSDs can last way longer than four years. You can only write X amount of times on a single cell, so after riding a lot of data, you won't be able to use that specific cell anymore. The controller is caring about that so it doesn't use the same cells all the time, so the cells are getting 'used up' at the same rate. Then, IIRC, SSDs have some cells that aren't typically used.

Wait what happen when a SSD goes over it read time limit? Do the file just poof gone?
Oh Ok. So once it hit it write limit. You can still recover the data and put it to a new one. Like cloning?
Ashngoy Uchiha from what i know, an ssd can hit its limit and still work for years
the limit is like the food's expiration date
it's still good
but it has reached its limit
it doesn't mean the ssd will just die, but you can start having problems with it
that said, it's advisable to back data up, ofc
but it won't just be useless, it's still going to work
i might be wrong tho, and i'd be glad if someone corrected me
Well Yes Actually no
Everytime you write anything on an SSD, it stores or releases Electrons from the Float Gate of the Transistor, however some Electrons can get captured and accumulate overtime. At one point you won't be able to distinguish the difference between 0 and 1 and your data will be lost.
However, mostly Manufacturers Suggests the Maximum write cycles for still readable data, so if you hit the Write limit you can still read it without issues, but it may effect the flash chips so it's recommended to clone it into a new one at that point and retire the old SSDs
@@lolesloloes6032 Well Yes but actually no, that's only if the limit is suggested for still readable data, if the given limit is the the true limit, then it's no longer possible to distinguish between 0 and 1 in Flash Chips and you would lose your data. And even if it's readable, clone it already because it won't run for anymore cycles than absolutely needed
Video Codecs as fast as possible
APFS (Apple File System) as fast as possible please.
my Samsung 850 SSD is dead.. any ides ??
Mechanical keyboards as fast as possible
They've already done that I think.
'Mechanical keyboard switches as fast as possible'
just search that.
So what happens when you read/ write too many times on an ssd?
More and more cells would start not working, so the controller would have less and less cells to work with, which would mean the performance would descrese as well the capacity. Very soon the system would stop working completely, because of data losses, which would cause corrupted data.

Can i get iMovie on a Windows computer?
Monitor overclocking As Fast As Possible.
mousepad overclocking
best TRIM softwares as fast as possible?
Windows 10, 8.1,8,7 all have trim command and you do not need anything else. If you don't have an OS with trim, There are lots of utilities from the SSD makers themselves or 3rd party that all provide the command.. There is no "BEST" when it comes to the trim command, You support it or you don't.
Unless you mean what's the best overall facility? Have I just gone mad with this reply? :P
hey guys, I just did actually do a optimization for my 840 evo ssd and managed to do something which caused it to use 100% of activity all the time. I would love if some one is able ot help me with this.
I used the samsung magician thing for it.
Please if anyone can help me that would be absolutely awesome!
These videos would be quicker without the ADS...
Deon Spates I usually stop watching whenever they say "Speaking of ..."
you used a meme. you my friend earned a like
i've just noticed.. Fast As Possible = F.A.P.
Soooooooooo, will my HyperX Savage 240Gb SSD last atleast 2 years. I only game on my pc, and Word for projects.
Yallah Habibi Your ssd should last from 5 to 10 years bro
+Eryk Zeta Awesome! Thanks for clearing things up
Yallah Habibi check out this program: SSDReady it tells you how much your ssd will last
Wow! I dindt know that, this will be great for comparing different SSD's down the road.
Uhm just a question from a pc guy. Ssds use the same technology as ram but why is ssd nowhere close to the speed? Is it just a matter of price?
cuz it's not the same technology. Ram is volotile memory, that is it only stores data while powered on. Ssds use flash storage, the same as sd cards, flash drivers, and also the storage in you cellphone. I'm pretty sure tech quickie has videos to explain both in more detail.
so if I play AAA games often my ssd with die faster?

Neko Chococat Legend says people doing these attention seeking comments usually don't get replies.
Dankerino Nicherino you replied ^^
So better SSDs have a controller in it?
all SSDs have a controller inside the device then another one on the motherboard or controller card to connect to get the data to read and/or write to the drive so the speed of the drive is limited to the max of those 2 controllers working together and always goes at fast as the slowest part
Cool !
I taped my hard drive to my laptop's display. lmao
'So it can store an entire election cycles worth of dank memes' genius!
I'm supposed to be playing this game but this one player keeps kicking my ass
is it thelegend27?
Can a Polaris controller run doom
so a trade secret to how they actually work but in simple they do something like that? nothing new from every other site saying the same thing
i installed a samsung ssd onto my 9 year old asus gaming motherboard which doesnt support AHCI to take full advantage of the ssd however i have set os provisioning and maximum reliability for performance using samsung magician. is this good enough to make the ssd last for years on end? i barely use my gaming tower now tho so i'll just have it mostly for storage shelf life.
depends on how big it is as a 1TB drive will last a while while the 128GB drive will fill up quickly if your kid does gaming, downloads and/or makes videos, audio files, pictures, and/or any combination of the above
+Horizon Foz The SMART lifespan is a bullshit number. I had 2 SSDs die on me and both were reporting 98% good. That number only counts total data written, it doesn't take into account actual wear of individual pages in the flash memory or, more importantly, the expected lifespan of other components (like capacitors) in the SSD. Unless you're writing hundreds of gigabytes of data onto the SSD every day, that's what's going to kill it.
***** I don't remember the exact models anymore, but the first one was a 90GB OCZ from 2011 (died after 4 years of moderate use in a desktop) and the second one was a 256GB M.2 SATA ADATA from 2014 (died after year and a half in a laptop; again, nothing heavy). The OCZ was probably my fault, I ran it with very little free space (and that's probably what killed it, because it ran normally, but would completely freeze up when accessing certain sectors), but the ADATA was just completely out of the blue (on that one, the controller died).
***** You're right, they were both Sandforce controllers (although I really don't think I can blame the OCZ on the controller).
My ssd has only the dankest of memes
