Hello,
For a new SSD, is it better to install Windows 7 x64 with service pack 1, instead of installing Windows 7 x64 and then allowing windows update to download SP1 after windows is installed?
I ask because I wonder if there are any SSD-specific optimizations introduced in service pack 1, to where it makes a better Windows installation?
I recently ordered the Plextor M3 128GB shell shocker deal and it just arrived.
So I need to know if I should make my own installation disk by slipstreaming SP1 into my plain Windows 7 x64 install, or is that a waste of effort because I won't gain any benefits by installing with the SP1, and should just allow windows update to take care of that. I don't care about any time savings at the install that might occur due to slipstreaming, but whether there is a performance enhancement to installing onto SSD specifically. Did SP1 even introduce any SSD-specific enhancements?
