evil fast. - Storage

Before purchasing this device, I looked through the SSD information and found what I was looking for. SSD read and write speed. I didn't want to reset my current Terra HD information. Well after looking for stuff and moving stuff to a freshly formatted old HD. I have one really big question. Why does this 128GB SSD fill up to the point where I only had 6GB of free space on the new SSD? It's been in RED for weeks while I'm trying to figure out why. Therefore, to save time, disable indexing services on your SSD. This thing is fast in red or not evil. When I removed the indexing I got back over 30 gigs and now it's blue. As I said, this thing ties 7.9 to the Windows rating. At the same time it warms up; but to the touch it is cool as a cucumber. After the work is done, it cools down just as quickly as it heats up. 54c back to 43c. I'll rent it and see if I can make it explode like fireworks. So far so good, I'm happy with my purchase. And just to show it, I bought a Combo 2 Terra Hybrid SSD spinner for $20 more. I figured out how to get my SSD back to normal so the hybrid will make it into my next build. I would buy again. angry fast.
