Question: How Do I Install Ubuntu on Ssd and Hdd?
Contents

Should I install Ubuntu on SSD or HDD?

Ubuntu is faster than Windows but the big difference is speed and durability. SSD has a faster read-write speed no matter the OS. It has no moving parts either so it won’t have a head crash, etc. HDD is slower but it won’t burn out sections over time lime an SSD can (though they are getting better about that).

Can I install Ubuntu on SSD?

Yes, but it is not trivial, so choose well from the start 3. Should I partition the disk? (as we do in traditional HDD) for now, no plan of dual booting. Only Ubuntu will live on scarce space of 80GB SSD.
