Thinking of replacing my Drive with a SSD. Probably happen about the time Leap 42.2 comes out.
An addition to the question: What about doing the same on a laptop which double boots with Windows? Is it possible to migrate both Windows and Linux to an SSD from rotating rust? Anybody has done it? Caveats, known issues, suspicions, ideas? I'm toying with the idea of doing it, but that is one of the things that stops me. Another is the "improved" price. Another is the suspicion that an SSD can die of age suddenly, being impossible to recover anything. My idea would be to dd the old disk to the new one. I have done this once on that same laptop using rotating disks of the same model. One problem might be sector size: old is 512B, new might be 4KiB. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
