That's not a thing: the SSD will balance writes physically across the
drive regardless of where they are logically.
OK, that's interesting.
I though the partition might physically lock a section of writes.
Is there a link that goes into that *partitions are not a boundary on
physical SSD writes* further?
If I'm sure, I'll just let Debian partition for Swap.

Thanks
