Hypothetically shorter life. You should make up your own mind - do you want it to last 12 years or 11.5 years? (That's meant as sarcasm) Directionally, maximum performance should give better performance and serve more bells and whistles in WIndows, whereas Max Reliability gives longer life and more stable performance (HYPOTHETICALLY), and Max Capacity gives you more .... can you guess? What you can do is read how the OS parameters are set in each case and choose that way or, finally (as OldMike suggests earlier in the thread), go to the advanced tab, choose options that make sense to serve your needs and implement your own "custom" settings.
