So i have a gaming desktop that not the best or the newest. What takes up most of my drive space is games, updates, and software’s. Im wondering if i should switch to linux and if linux will improve any performance for my main machine? If you believe i should switch what os should i go with or why or why not should i switch?

I mostly game and do mess with ollama/ai tools because i think that’s cool. I want to do more things in the future but that might beyond my drive space?

What would you advise?

    I picked up a Samsung m.2 280 or 260 gb guy on eBay for like ten bucks. I don’t remember the size exactly, just that it wasn’t the normal binary 256gb.

      They sell 250 on 256 and 500 on 512, holding back the 6/12 gigs for wear leveling and other NAND management functions. At least that’s what I understand.
