I have an NVME drive as well as a spinning-rust drive. I've got swap

From what I understand, hibernation uses the swap area to store data,
so I expect the answer is "no".
However, why not move both the the NVME? You will speed up swapping
considerably by doing so.
It probably would. I'm worried about shortening the life of the NVME drive
with all those short writes. Do SSDs fail by going read-only, or do they
just vanish and take your data with them?
