so I have this old SSD drive. the noa series that has issues with half capacity slow down

I don't want it to just sit and collect dust

I have a g62 HP laptop tht I bought cdrom hard drive tray for and its in it now just sittin.

so heres my 2 options and I don't have detailed knowledge to pick what would be better option

1 I can copy the laptop OS on the ssd drive and swap them around making the nova ssd a system drive and gain some speed. and leave the laptop original HD in the cdrom tray for storage.


2 I can install the nova into my desktop and dedicate the 25gb gb of the drive only to be used as virtual memory and nothing else.

I have the Samsung 850 series SSD now as system drive and windows keeps asking to create virtual memory space every time I restart so I figure out of all hard drives the nova would be perfect


what you guys think is better choice and why
 
btw im gonna try updating the firmware on it like the internet says to improve the performance
 
its kinda trash to begin with lol i can only use half of it
its the nova 60gb that slows down after its over 50% full
how long are we talking about before it dies if used as pagefile?
