Hello! I'm going to install Windows 7 on Macbook Pro (15', 16 GB RAM, SSD 256). Do I need to optimize Windows after installation to work with an SSD drive? Should I move the paging file to another disk (HDD), disable the creation of restore points, turn off the indexing function and hibernation?
Or should you not bother about it? Thanks in advance!

At one time, I did it selectively according to this instruction:
my-ssd.ru/ssd_guide
For Windows 8.1, no optimization for SSD is required.
3. Disabling the paging file is undesirable. As a last resort, transfer it to the HDD, which will reduce the speed of work.
4-6 points are doubtful.
7, 9, 10 - do not disable.
11. With the temp folder - the same as with the paging file. It will just slow things down.
Information for thought.

Do not bother, all these tricks were relevant five years ago, now the disks have become more reliable, and the axis has learned to work with them.
The only advice - try not to fill the disk to capacity, the more free space on it - the longer it will live.

Not!
Plug in the disc and go!
