Question
How do I set up Over Provisioning?

Answer

1) In Magician Home, enable Over Provisioning (OP) to configure its settings.

   a. You may select the OP size as desired

      - Recommended : Default setting, 10% of available space

      - Custom : Enter the percentage desired

   b. Use Set OP / Clear OP button to enable or disable OP

   c. If the disk does not support Volume Span/Shrink, this feature is not available

     (You can check by right clicking 'Management - Disk Management')

 

2) If you try using Magician and fail, you can create the same effect using volume shrink in Disk Management of the operating system.

   a. Run Disk Management

   b. Right click on the biggest partition on your SSD

   c. Select Shrink

   d. Shrink the Partition by 10%

Due to the physical characteristics of the SSD, please disable scheduled defragmenting.
