>you don't an specific amout of writes until it dies, one day it will randomly malfunction
lol what?
Also, in my experience, SSDs are a hell of a lot more reliable than magnetic drives. I wouldn't dare to run magnetic disks today without them being in a RAID with parity and redundancy.
And btw, when you exceed the number of writes, the SSD is still readable, so you can recover your data anyway.
I run windows 10 for the first year, then i only stored /boot and /.
SSDs last longer than HDDs in normal home use OP. You can be mad about your shit breaking all you want but that's statistics for you. Tons of people buy HDDs and have them fail after 2 weeks.
Not using your SSD for only your OS
>I had pic related and it broke after 2 years and 2 months. a lot of other people get the same with every single brand, even samsung
Then either you got the crappy one or you do write a lot like 500GB/day
>when you exceed the number of writes, the SSD is still readable, so you can recover your data anyway.
you got a point there. it isnt still a sensible solution from a consumer point of view since they are expensive for the amount of storage you get
Damn, all SSDs fail after 3 years and Samsung has a 5 year warranty on theirs, even the cheap EVO drives. Someone call Samsung, they're literally throwing money away having to replace 100% of their SSDs for free, that can't be good for business.
You're not paying for the amount of storage your paying for the speed you dense nigger
Where is the point in creating these threads? Is this a time traveller from 2010?
I used to build file servers for my friends back in the days, and I would usually buy 8 HDDs at the time for RAID5+1, and every bulk of disks I bought, there was always one fucker that was dead on delivery.
