I have a dualboot setup as described in this answer to Installing Ubuntu on pre-installed Windows 10 with UEFI I want to take advantage of the SSD drive on Ubuntu without messing up Windows 8.1.

All systems are on /dev/sda (including /boot/efi) and the solid-state drive appears on /dev/sdb in two "unknown" type partitions in GParted -- is it safe to format these and how to best make use of them on Ubuntu?

Just for the record, the SSD "is used only as a cache under Windows" on my laptop as I found out searching for the model name. So it is most likely safe to use it as a swap partition under linux as well in a dualboot setup.
