Hi,

I bought a SSD solid disk and will perform a fresh install on it. Debian 
testing. I've never used such a disc.

I bought a Crucial CT1000MX500SSD1 (1TB 3D NAND Crucial SATA MX500 Internal SSD 
(with 9.5mm adapter) — 6.35cm (2.5in) and 7mm).

I read the recommendations on the https://wiki.debian.org/SSDOptimization page.

However, I still have some doubts:

1. Use ext4 or LVM partitioning?

2. I read in the Warnming section that some discs contain bugs, including 
Crucial. But I don't know if I need to use or not use "discard" on this disk 
(CT1000MX500SSD1). If I need to proceed with use "discard", would you please 
have any tips on how to do it? I didn't understand how to do this.

3. Should I reserve a swap partition or not? I always had one on hdd disks. I 
was in doubt, too.

4. Any other recommendations to improve the performance and lifespan of this 
disk?

Thank you!
