Does ntfs journaling affect ssd wear ?
Windows constant disk write even if all prefetch, indexing, pagefile,backup,restore etc services are off
simply cause of ntfs journaling tracing every copy/write/delete/logging on the system
and it can't be turned off, any application can start it back up.
A simple look at disk activity when nothing is happening in the pc reveals
a constant writing/overwriting to the $Logfile, $MFT, wfpdiag.etl, system.log2 etc
that reaches sometimes to 20kb/s per each.
I understand the ssd wear paranoia but i wonder if there is a merit here.
