How would you optimize this disk for Debian? I will only use it on this compute so no dual boot and so on.

Re: Optimize installation on new SSD
These days one doesn't need to be too pedantic with SSD optimization, they are amazingly durable. One test committed mass murder on 6 SSDs and they all wrote hundreds of terabytes before failing, and 2 lasted past 2PB!

That said, I still haven't done any tweaks with my 3 month old Samsung 850 500GB. Must get around to it, but the only ones I plan to do are fstrim/cron and commit as mentioned in the siduction article linked above.

Re: Optimize installation on new SSD
Ok I messed up my laptop keyboard during upgrade (zif connector).... 
I can't use the built in keyboard or the external usb keyboard to do bios settings.
Is it a problem if I don't use AHCI? I know that I will lose speed, but could it harm the SSD? I will have to save for a new computer...
Installed Sparky Linux with 2 partitions.
Start End Size
/dev/sda1 2048 411647 200MB vfat
/dev/sda2 411648 234440703 111,6G ext4
The computer is a lot faster though.
