Hello Sean! On 26 Jan 2026, digimaus said the following... di> I was shocked to see how much room was freed. I need to run this on my di> little Dell laptop as it has a 128 GB mSATA drive in it that would di> benefit from this. Yep, that could probably make quite some difference! di> Either way, nice to know. FreeBSD has special utilities to run on SSDs di> to not write to them as much to extend the drive's lifetime. I used to increase the "commit" value for ext4 file systems on my Debian box... But to lower the chances of losing data in case of power interruptions (brownouts, outages etc.) I actually skipped doing that some time ago, as the TBW values and the age of the SSD indicated that the disk should hold up for another 75 years or so anyway. :-D Best regards Zip --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A49 2024/05/29 (Linux/64) * Origin: Star Collision BBS, Uppsala, Sweden (618:500/27) |
