Hi G Skill support!
1. I have a Falcon II 64 GB drive, is this an overprovisioned drive, and if yes by how much?
2. In other forums I am reading suggestions to create an extra 10 GB of unallocated space at the end (making allocated space 60 GB -> 50 GB), will this help with the longevity of the drive? Note: I understand that to do this I would need a secure erase, I am in any case intending to do it before switching from Windows 7 32-bit to 64-bit.
3. On a separate note, do you think that setting the OS with a cluster size of 64k would help with performance?
thank you for your advice.
