A good way to reach you off post:
Hi Clinton, how are you? Still happy with your 900GBCrucial?
I see that you are on Mavericks: may be you allow me to make some comments about things that used to be good for MBP's:
Trim: we talke about that not so long ago.
Hibernatemode: we used to disable that on our MBP's because with SSD it serves nothing, and it saves a lot of large writes, and takes space; the sleepimage is/was as large as the amount of Ram. No longer in Mavericks: the sleepimage is only a bit less than 1.1GB not much to gain. BUT, even more interesting: when you set Hibernatemode to 0, there still is a sleepimage written ⚠, when you "touch" an empty locked sleepimagefile of zero bytes, instead a Swapfile is written of the same size as the sleepimage.
Conclusion, not effective to set hibernatemode to 0 and remove the sleepimage. Good, because want to mess as little as possible in the system files don't we (although it makes us feel a bit special😁).
greetings,
Lex
