It is true that even with a daily normal use, we feel a bigger dynamism with a SSD.

The data does persist on the drive after it's deleted by the OS (which really just ignores the deleted file anyway unless you scrub it / securely delete it)
No idea how data persistence lifetimes compare between SSD and platter but you can certainly recover deleted data from SSD.
Using a scrubber frequently on nuke from orbit settings will shorten the lifespan of an SSD too.
Grab a copy of recuva and run it on your SSD and see what it finds
I thought that the cells was reset to 0 after deleting but I just read that we must do a Secure Erase (also as you said).

You certainly get less information back from an SSD compared to a platter drive but SSDs will still contain some of those kitten and puppy videos people think they have deleted forever.
Avoid using Gutmann erasure processes though which always seem to be a option nuke from orbit on erasing applications as 35 passes will not make your SSD stay happy for ever
It's very easy to test how roughly how well an erasure process has worked and it's very quick on an SSD as I'm sure you know.
Sorry, I'm talking FPS... File transfers and such will be noticeable but it is extremely rare to notice any improvements in frame rates. I don't believe that I've ever seen an article that demonstrates a higher framerate that is outside the margin of error. The only time it might help in game is loading an extremely large map or game level, but while affecting the framerate, that really isn't about it.
No doubt! I had to run mine on a spinner recently and OMG will this thing ever get done!

Not talking FPS here but in flight sims, using photoscenery and enhanced scenery the use of SSD has made a huge difference to my enjoyment. Loading times for such stuff is greatly reduced resulting in faster start-ups and elimination of "choppy" or "stuttering" environments.
I'd just have some fun and smack, burn, spit, throw, punch and step on it.
Meh - everything that can conceivably be termed "data storage device" here has to be held for at least seven years (much longer in some cases) and then securely shredded under supervision. Including devices that never "stored" data except in some obscure legal meaning. Would you consider a dumb layer 1 switch a "data storage device"? Well, apparently in some legal jurisdictions yes - it is.
Completely bonkers, but it is what it is.

For my SSD Samsung, I'lll never use something else than the Secure Erase of Samsung Magician application which is delivered with the SSD.
I wonder how much damage I can do with a bit of information...
That's pretty much what I was saying. Some of the better flight sims have huge maps so it would help them. Kinda funny it doesn't to help with the load times in ELITE when you pop into a system or station and get that stutter in VR...
