Yes if you install clover uefi

2017-08-21 14:04:37 UTC  

Just install windows to uefi

I'm no expert but on SSD's but if you encrypt the full disk it will take up the whole disk space even if it is not actually full, as opposed to an unencrypted drive which will only use what is actually being used and the space is only allocated. If the full disk is being used on an ssd it reduces the write cycles more quickly (I forgot why)

2017-08-21 14:04:57 UTC  

There is my shitty explanation

2017-08-21 14:05:17 UTC  

@transience more read / writes I think Idk I'm not an expert I'm just retarded

2017-08-21 14:05:37 UTC  

You are!

Nice job reading what install gentoo wrote

2017-08-21 14:06:29 UTC  

I am retarded

2017-08-21 14:06:45 UTC  

I agree

Most SSDs have a large cache (of around 30gb or more I think) which stops the drive from completely bricking itself

2017-08-21 14:10:28 UTC  

I think if they are completely full they break

2017-08-21 14:10:38 UTC  

Without a cache

2017-08-21 14:11:59 UTC  

It's a evo 830 m.2

2017-08-21 14:12:09 UTC  

Good. kys

2017-08-21 14:12:14 UTC  

@install gentoo As far as I know, it fills up the drive so you can't figure out how much free space there is until you decrypt the drive

2017-08-21 14:12:24 UTC  

It's a one time thing until you overwrite that free space iirc

2017-08-21 14:13:21 UTC  

Yeah

2017-08-21 14:13:27 UTC  

I don't see how running encrypted vms 24/7 would reduce the lifespan though

2017-08-21 14:13:30 UTC  

@dappleface you thot

2017-08-21 14:14:08 UTC  

What kind of autist runs encrypted vms

2017-08-21 14:14:29 UTC  

you're doing it wrong anyway

2017-08-21 14:14:48 UTC  

encrypted the main drive itself, then run unencrypted vms off that

2017-08-21 14:16:40 UTC  

daily reminder that dapple's dad broke into his unencrypted *actual* drive and found out his plans to throw an underage party

2017-08-21 14:16:47 UTC  

Full disk encryption = bloat anyway

2017-08-21 14:16:54 UTC  

really makes you <:thenk:329322130804047872>

2017-08-21 14:17:00 UTC  

Just encrypt the files you need to

2017-08-21 14:17:19 UTC

2017-08-21 14:18:34 UTC  

Is patrician way to do it

2017-08-21 14:18:55 UTC  

Less likely to get locked out of your os
