I would also like to use the end of this post which will be merged i believe to welcome back @Twigless Leaf to the degeneracy pit.... i mean thread........ it was just not as degenerate without you here! 😁
My degeneracy isn’t premium enough 😢

The short kings, the gamblers, the grumpy old ones, the horny girl, that one little power tripping dictator , my bro(dy)s, not @Noci , silent lurkers, creepy creeps, people who don't know how a fridge and microwave works, and of course our lewd poster in the Daily Theme Threads.

So many inside jokes 😁

SSDs don't like it if you regulary write on them. So if you install something on them (games, operating systems, ..) It's okay. But using it for short termed stuff like downloads, repacking, update folders, .. is aging them up way faster. This of course gets compensated by bigger storage = every sector gets less often overwritten.
Tech‑savvy people really have a way with words. It’s like hearing the language of romance… French, but in tech vocabs.

What about the default download folder on the SSD? Is it possible to change the path so everything automatically downloads to the HDD instead?

Nearly every program and app gives you the option in the settings to change the default download path.
Even Windows itself for it's updates, but I wouldn't recommend this. Every major update sets it back to default and the chance to fuck it up is high.

with the descriptors "creepy creeps" and "people who dont know how a fridge and microwave works" i think you just about encompass all of us 😭

Such a detailed write‑up. You’re the GOAT, @Lensk .

A 512 GB SSD is great. My old laptop only has a 100 GB SSD + 1 TB HDD. Do you even need an HDD with that much SSD?

On another topic, what tablet brand do you recommend for mid‑range specs and a mid‑range budget? I hate Apple’s forced account sign‑ins and limited app installs, so I’m leaning toward Samsung or Lenovo. But I’ve heard Samsung also forces you to create an account or else you can’t fully factory reset. What’s the real deal?

512GB runs out much faster than you think.... especially with games these days! 😳 if you are playing a mainstream title recall its name and look into the storage space required for it..... it could even be in the hundreds! for some reference example cyberpunk 2077 is 60GB if i recall....... and that is without the DLC!

what Twigless said here:

But using it for short termed stuff like downloads, repacking, update folders, .. is aging them up way faster.

is very correct. for me personally i have NVME for my boot drive.... where i put the OS and such..... and also use it for games. for general file storage for work and things i have many HDD, which are much cheaper than an NVME, but as you may imagine a lot slower...... but that is not such an issue....... i am patient............ sometime:LOL: i also store many of my NSFW game on the HDDs...... because frankly....... i download more of those than i do normal games:devilish:

if 512gb is enough for you..... then it is enough. but for longevity twigless is correct here about the SSDs not liking many regular writes and even ignoring such an insight........ i could simply not live with 512gb my self :ROFLMAO: much too small unless you are very careful with your file-hygiene...... which i am not!

a fun fact for the security: HDD have an easier time deleting all trace of individual files if you use the write (ha!) methods...... ssd not so much due to how it is allocating such space and even if you "shred" the file many traces of some such may remain purely due to how it is made........ of course full disk encryption solves such a problem to an extent..... but that is a whole other can of worms! 🪱 i will just leave it at a fun fact for now.

for tablet i can not give you the answer you like........ the ipad has been dominating the market for many years with good reason........ android based tablets such as samsung and such are easier to work around and lessen the restrictions on...... or "jailbreak" if you like..... though i am not sure if anyone even calls it such a thing anymore due to the operating system they use, but performance wise they are typically worse...... the account being mandatory could vary not just between brand...... but also between the tablet itself..... my knowledge on the tablet ecosystem stops there...... so i can not help you further with that one..... but if it is just for general use it is hard to go wrong with many of them...... unless you buy the especially cheap! if you like to draw i know ipad or a separate tablet peripheral is held in higher regard compared to other tablet

What about the default download folder on the SSD? Is it possible to change the path so everything automatically downloads to the HDD instead?

it is yes! it is very easy also..... many tutorials online for such a thing....... you can change it at a system level by just right click > properties > location of your downloads folder or many browser let you change the setting individually in their own settings also, many will be polite enough to ask you where you would like the file to go also :)

i have been at that peak for many year now...... i am wondering when i will be plummeting into the valley of despair 😆

That part about kitchen appliances was also a part of the moving I was helping.
It literally shocking how little people know about one of the deadliest, readily available thing in every home.

For lonely friday nights it's a nice activity to collect old HDDs from thrown out PCs and look what people didn't delete. Protip: don't do it.

Question is, if you could handle it. I couldn't. I took my ignorance and climbed back to Mount Stupid.

the fridge is certainly very deadly for me.......... primarily when it is full of delicious food 😆 as for the HDDs....... i need to come to your neighbor hood! i would love to get some free storage....... i am willing to ignore the horrors people have on their drives in exchange...... think of it as bribery...... the discussion made me think of the website iknowwhatyoudownload........ many horrors can be found....... as well as some great recommendations :ROFLMAO:

i have been clinging tightly onto the peak with two fingers...... dangling over the edge....... i see what is down there..... i will not let go!

as an edit i removed the web site link..... nothing horrible or illegal is linked or shown there..... it only links to normal pornographic content...... but it does tell you if someone has been doing something illegal with their ip address and i did not want to expose such a thing to anyone who does not want to see it. it is also a useful tool to see if you are about to get a copyright letter from a film studio 😆

And good morning Everyone!

Most modern SSDs should be rated for quite a lot of writes these days though. That said, its still beneficial to get all unecessary writes off them (such as Windows 2394082536 million services writing %TEMP% and c:\windows\systemtemp and d3dcache etc.... As well as your browsers. Thats why I run a Ramdrive and have everything possible moved to it (such as Chrome and Firefoxs temp folders (there are a LOT of them).


I have a samsung evo 840 which has been online for 49.000 hours and written 14.9 TB, its still in good health.

On the other hand, my Intel 250GB NVME went into read-only-mode (with a warning) last month, after being in daily use since 2016.
Which was lucky, since I just built a new computer when that one failed shortly after.

I also have an Intel SSD with 38.000 HOURS and 38TB written (according to smart) which had some issues in Windows on the old computer, but SMART says its in good health, according to Grok.
  • ~5.5 TB host writes + 38 TB NAND writes on a 480 GB drive rated for roughly 80–200 TBW endurance (typical for MLC drives of this era) means it's used ~19–47% of its rated life (closer to the higher end if endurance was ~80 TBW).
  • The drive is not new but still has significant life left unless other attributes show problems (e.g., reallocated sectors, uncorrectable errors, very low Media Wearout Indicator normalized value, or high program/erase fail counts).
  • At 38 TB NAND written, if the normalized Media Wearout Indicator (often ID 233) is still above ~50–60 (out of 100), the drive is in decent shape.
  • SandForce controllers (like SF-2281) are infamous for performance degradation over time if the drive fills up, TRIM isn't effective, or with heavy incompressible/random writes — write speeds could drop significantly (e.g., to 100–200 MB/s or worse in worst cases).

since we were also having discussions about retro games here.... here is another interesting one 😁

maybe to the liking of @ylntla81! also 🤔
Oooo, it looks cute but my phone is too old to be a reliable emulator x-x It's approaching it's 10 year birthday and the battery life is too messed up to not die and delete my game saves :3
 
Good morning and happy MILFy Monday. Today is also the day that - despite millions or BILLIONS of dollars worth of radar and satellites - they use a RODENT to forecast the weather.

I mean they are basically just guessing half the time with all the radar and satellites anyway.

I actually use a raspberry pie with retro pie on it for a lot of emulation its pretty nice if you ever think about it. Also a Samsung z fold phone is perfect for 3ds emulation if you ever get a new phone.

Oooo I recently obtained a raspberry pie as well, I'll defi look into that <3

yeah and despite millions or BILLIONS of dollars spent, the have similar accuracy to groundhogs.

Thanks for the breakdown, a great insight on your specific setup.
The Evo840 series has great controllers, so you can count on the higher range.
But 49khr runtime with just 14.9TB TBW on the Evo sounds so odd. Not in a bad way.

Well, there is still tape drive used today. Recently reaching 30TB. Some Nuclear powerplant in Europe used floppy disks recently for some security related applications, the odd shape, no modern usage and rarity made it easier to spot if someone tried to smuggle it into high security areas.

I genuinely did not know this and it's going to change how I do my regular file management day to day.

Thanks!

Well, thats because all those fancy shmancy satellites arent checking for their own shadows. How can you know the weather if you cant check your own shadow? Cant do it.
Good morning, how's your monday going guys? Mine is like this, help

Nearly every program and app gives you the option in the settings to change the default download path.
Even Windows itself for it's updates, but I wouldn't recommend this. Every major update sets it back to default and the chance to fuck it up is high.

A few years ago, I moved the standard Windows "Download" folder path to an HDD, and so far, even after a Windows update, it has not changed back.
The only thing that happened was that a program downloaded an update/new version of itself and created a new "Download" folder in place of the original Windows "Download" folder.
That program is the “MiniTool Video Converter-Free Version.
You can't change the download path manually in this program either.
But it's the only program that does this.
All the others use the new one or the AppData/Local/Temp Folder.

Is this on Win11? Up untill 7 this was no problem. 8 was skipped and from Win10 it started to revert custom registry entrys, custom system paths and even interrupting PowerToy functions.
Thanks for telling me. I will try this out anywy on my next clean reinstall of Windows, probably it was in the same bag of ol' Windows shit like the "Update and shutdown" not being functional.
