kwi Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 A couple of weeks ago I switched from HDD to SSD. Made a fresh install Win10 on Samsung 250 SSD C:\ drive, and also fresh FSX onto Samsung 500Gb D:\ Since then it takes a looong time to start FSX, and even much more longer if I change to another plane. It feels like double then on the old HDD. FSX performance itself is equal or even better during flight. No other change in HW or SW. Trim is on for both SSD's Thank you for any tips Peter Win10Home, I7@3,8 8Gig RAM GTX960/4Gb Ancient I7-2600@3900, 24gb ram, 250gb ssd win10/64, 500gb ssd fsx, 500gb ssd p3d v3.4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogdish Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 Besides the computer below with HDD's I also have another with Crucial MX100 256gb and 512gb SSD's. I can't really tell much difference between the two. Perhaps a side by side comparison might reveal small improvements. With add-on SSD drives your going through SATA ports limited to 6gb/s. Eventually I will get a PCIe NVMe 512gb for Windows 10 and a 2TB for FS2020 that I will put in a PCIe adapter (since only have one socket). I expect that to be blazingly fast Gigabyte GA-X99 Gaming G1, i7-5960X, Noctua NH-D14, Crucial Ballistix Elite 64Gb, Nvidia GTX Titan X, Creative ZxR, Ableconn PEXM2-130, WD Black SN750 250Gb & 2Tb NVMe/Gold 10Tb HDD, Sony BDU-X10S BD-ROM, PC Power & Cooling 1200w, Cosmos C700M, Noctua iPPC 140mm x6, Logitech M570/K800, WinX64 7 Ultimate/10 Pro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
