If you’re noticing slow Unitate în stare solidă (SSD) boot up times on your Windows 10 computer, you’re probably wondering where things went wrong. SSDs are renowned for having faster boot ups and faster operation speeds than regular hard drives, so when things start to get slow, something may need to be fixed.
In this guide, I will list a number of potential fixes for why your SSD may be slowing down on boot up. These issues should fix boot up times and in some cases they may improve general performance too.
As it can be hard to pinpoint your problem, we will be offering our tips in a simple order – from the easiest to the most complicated. Hopefully, your SSD will be up and running again at full speed in no time.
Full SSDs Slow Down – Free Up Space To Improve Performance
The less space on your SSD, the slower it will perform. However, it’s not as bad these days as you think. Older SSD technology had this problem, so unless you have an older SSD – we’re talking around 2010 – this isn’t going to be an issue.
However, if your SSD is at 90% capacity or higher, you may notice some performance issues. It’s at this point you should clear up some space.
It can be hard to maintain your SSD if you are using a smaller storage capacity. The best solution is often to offload the majority of your data to a larger 1TB HDD. They are very cost efficient and still offer reasonable speeds for basic performance. If you don’t have a spare hard drive readily available, in the meantime just clearing up 10% of your storage capacity should be enough.
You can check your storage capacity by pressing the Windows Key, tastare PC și făcând clic Acest PC.
