New SSD test procedure/setup ?
Posted: Tue Jul 14, 2015 4:54 pm
Finally got myself an SSD.
With a new HDD I would always perform a full surface scan to test for bad sectors, before partitioning/use.
Is there a similar test I can do with SSD's to help make ure I don't have a duff one ?
Once any testing has been done, I plan on creating relevant partitions with the 1MB alignment option in BIBM, before installing relevant OS's (OS X (I'll be enabling new TRIM option in 10.10.4) and Windows 8.1).
Is there anything else I should do/know ?
