What is better for guest SSD, fixed or dynamic size image?
I'm going to place a Windows XP VDI image on a SSD, this OS doesn't use TRIM. So is the fixed size better in this case? Will it minimize writes to the disk also?

AFAIK, fixed or dynamic size does not make any difference in terms of write to the disk during usage.
