Rules for setting up an SSD

1: buy and install  SSD in PC (or buy a computer with it already
installed).
2: if using linux, set "discard" in fstab for the correct device
3: set noatime as well if desired
4: reboot or remount /
5: stop  reading stupid crap on the internet about how to not configure
SSDs
6: stop posting stupid crap on the list about how to not configure SSDs
7: ignore stupid ubuntu advice about cron jobs to run TRIM
8:> ignore every other single stupid thing you've ever heard about SSDs
9:  PROFIT 

It really is 100% set and forget at this point. Just one
fstab edit, and you're done. Please please please no more wrong headed SSD
posts for a while now. Regards
                  
Thanks for all that. I am now feeling quite smug for that is exactly
what I have done.
