Can Linux be installed on SSD?
Install Linux completely on the SSD. You’ll get full advantage of SSD speed, but then you will have only a limited disk space. This could work if you have 180 GB or 200 GB or more on SSD but won’t work with 120 GB SSD. You’ll have plenty of disk space, but Linux will boot slower, and you won’t get the SSD advantage.
