SSDs only improve loading times, XP is unsupported and doesn't support trim.

I got 5400 hdd its very slow i got lags at map, I check ssd give more stability of my fps.
Windows XP give me more fps then windows 7 at my norebook, win7~40-60 winXP~70-110

i dont care about trim, i think ssd will work enough time for me.

I read over 3 years ago that you are six more times likely to get an attack (infection) on XP due to the support for that OS being gone long ago. Just saying...

And you will care about trim, when that SSD gets full of garbage and runs slower than your previous HDD.

For garbage i have hdd (also I will use trim sometimes - got second OS Seven)
I dont use antivirus and my xp on previous hdd live like 6 years without viruses or attacks)

And what about device drivers that support that SSD in XP ? SSD's were still pretty new when XP was just getting phased out, so without supported or optimised drivers, that can be an issue also.

Why are you still using XP anyway ? And if you are running a dual OS as in XP and 7 on the same machine, I will bet drivers are still an issue, as you boot to a different OS each time, but the hardware in the computer is still the same.

2 OS at same hdd - just google it, how it works about drivers
why? i typed it before.
I have ahci driver its enough i think for ssd, all works fine (without trim and steam only)

You "think" ?

Post the exact model and model number of this computer. If it is custom built, post the exact motherboard.

The way Samsung organizes driver downloads on their website is not user friedly at all, but I do see some XP drivers as well as Windows 7 drivers.

I would suggest you search through all of these, if I have the correct computer from what you have posted that is, and you install all relevant Windows 7 drivers on that boot partition, then all relavant XP drivers on that boot partition.

http://www.samsung.com/levant/support/model/NP-RV508-A02JO

EDIT..Click the tab "Downloads & Manuals" that you see there and expand the lists, as you will see "more" to the right of the driver downloads.

However, trim will still not be available under XP, as you seem to understand. Hope that helps.

Verywell, but just because it "works", does not mean it could not work better, as in making sure the drivers are fully up to date.

Still not sure why you like XP so much, as you have Windows 7 also. Windows 7 is a HUGELY better operating system than XP, and is currently supported by Microsoft updates also. But to each his own. Good luck to you in any case.
