    Random reads are still slower than sequential in SSD. try torrenting for a year on SSD, then benchmark then defragment then benchmark. it will be very measureable difference. you may need some linux filesystem like XFS as im not sure if there is a way to defrag SSDs in windows.


  • At least you can talk to someone at your ISP who can change things, in 10 years I was literally never been able to contact someone who knows anything about networks in any of the 3 big ISPs here… all I get is this:

    “oh you have speed issue? Let me “refresh” your connection”

    “No sir i have no speed issues, I just need to be able to open IPv6 ports”

    “Oh trying to changing the cable port?”

    “Sigh… can you transfer me to advanced support plz”

    “Sure thing”

    Advanced support: “So you having speed issues?”

    “No i just need to be able to open IPv6 ports”

    “Ah ports, you can do that from your router settings i think”

    “No sir, you are the only ISP here where I can’t open ports or receive any ICMP on my ipv6”

    “Let me see… i’ll refresh your connections”

    And it’s the same of many different issues, you can’t get a hold of anyone who can change anything in any layer about any config. Take it or leave it…
