Keep in mind that on Windows this is pretty much guaranteed to fail because Windows is trash at dealing with IO. A hilarious fact if you install Windows on a virtual machine running under a Linux host it will get better IO benchmarks than if you were to install Windows on that machine bare metal.
It’s also constantly thrashing the system with a bunch of b******* background IO so a big part of why this can work is that steamos is using Linux lol
Well, you are correct, they are more than adequate. I updated my original comment with my findings, but just wanted to say thanks for informing me. I’ll still keep using SSDs personally, because I have lost a few SD cards to corruption over the years, but I can see the appeal of moving between systems easily.
