Disk clean up will become unavailable. Another thing you have to do in drive
propertie is disable the indexing of files. This causes useless reads on the
drive. Disabling that seems to get rid of the disk cleanup option as well.

Cool! Thanks for that! Guess it's still ok to use "disk Clean up", just
not defrag?

Kind of yes, but it ensures all files get wiped, includeing any that windows
or programs removes.

Guess that's kind of the same as doing a shift delete?

Hi, you can delete the files directly from the drive with no problem.
Cutting would just do the same, mark the cells as free. One other thing I do
and that's recommended is to disable the recycle bin for the ssd. Go to the
properties, select th drive or all of its partitions (if applicable), and
select the remove files immediately radio button. This ensures that the
drive isn't copying data to itself elsewhere. Of course this means you'll
have to be a little more careful as to what you delete, but it's worth it to
keept the drive running better.

and writes are some what of an issue, but negligible if the OS supports trim
(which most new ones do), and if you do some house keeping/caring to make
sure you don't mess things up; mainly disabling disc defrag on windows,
swap, hibernation and paging files, and not running scheduled backups but
doing them manually. Even with all this, on newer drives like the evo 840
and 850, read and write lifetime is so high that it wouldn't impact too much
on the negative.
Phil replied: always disable windows backups, swap, hibernation and paging
file due to having so much RAM in the system anyway even if running
mechanical drives but will also disable disk defrag. This brings up an
interesting question. If I needed to delete files from an SSD would it be
better to cut the files to another drive then delete them from there?

Phil replied: don't think it has a m.2 or MSata. I suppose I could have
purchased a thunderbolt drive caddy however, got a lot of those Western
Digital 3.5 inch black drives here which I put in USB3 boxes so don't think
there is likely to be much of a bottleneck there :-)
