Hi everyone. My name is Nicholas.

I have a new computer that has an Intel SSD. I have some questions about using 
Ubuntu with an SSD that I hope ubuntu developers can answer for me. I've 
researched online but do not know how best to proceed as there seems to be 
differing advice. I see it mentioned online that I should mount with DISCARD. 
But an article from OpenSUSE says DISCARD is not good to use. 
http://opensuse.14.n6.nabble.com/SSD-detection-when-creating-first-time-fstab-td3313048.html

Here are my questions
1.) are there any issues I should be aware of if using ubuntu on an SSD? Is 
ubuntu primarily intended to be used on HDD and not recommended for SSD?

2.) do you recommend TRIM be used for SSD with ubuntu? 

3.) If you do recommend TRIM be used, how should TRIM be setup? Automatic 
wiping, or manual wiping? FITRIM, FSTRIM, or DISCARD? 

I really don't understand any of this in depth, so I'm very thankful for any 
direction/guidance you can provide.

Thank you so much,
Nicholas


By the way, I explored wiki.ubuntu.com but couldn't find info on SSDs I was 
looking for.
