To maximize performance, both Skyrim: Special Edition and Living Skyrim should be installed on the same hard drive, ideally an SSD/NVMe.If you are installing the list without Nexus Premium, expect the process to take a couple of days of 8+ hour sessions downloading mods. Download and installation times vary based on your computer and internet speeds, but expect the entire process to take a few hours. Installing to an SSD/NVMe is not required, but also highly recommended. As of version 3.5.0, Living Skyrim requires 257GB of hard drive space on top of the ~11GB Skyrim: Special Edition base files.Nexus Premium will cut your install time to a fraction of what it would be by automating both the mod download and mod install processes of installing the list.
Failure to heed warning blocks is cause for disaster. Warning blocks like this one will warn you when you absolutely must not forget to do something.
