hibernate with SSD?

always had hibernate on my laptop, when i pull the lid down, but now stuck a ssd in and thinking i could do with the space back, i hear hibernate uses 75% of your memory so that will be 6GB for me!

Turn it off then?

You could also consider reducing your Pagefile size if you have 8GB of RAM.

yeah just wondering what others do, i liked the whole pull the lid and it hibernates,

With a SSD on the laptop, time difference between hibernate and startup would not be that long would it?

i guess not, i would have to get used to it, as i normally just slam the lid and that sets hibernate off.

no worries with read write to the ssd? sure i read somewhere to disable hibernate, but maybe that was for space issues.

You can set the laptop to shutdown on lid close event in power options!
