minus-square@QuillsOPlinkEnglish2•10 months agoOoh, so… Would a crucial P3 2280 500gb fall into this category?
minus-square@QuillsOPlinkEnglish1•edit-210 months agoOh, saad didn’t knew that, so like, that means this ssd is super bad? And should i remove the swap here? (I have 8gb of ram and 4 of swap) Oh and how to i set up Zram?
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink2•10 months agoIf you only have 8gb you’re probably swapping a lot, depends on what you do with your PC. Anyway, to set up zram the easiest way is to try this: https://github.com/systemd/zram-generator/tree/main Also, take a look at the zram page on the arch wiki, even if you’re not using arch it’s very well made: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Zram
