Have you optimized your OS to reduce writes to SSD storage? Remember - Linux constantly is writing logs and access times when a file is opened. You do have a ramdisk don't you and 25% unpartitioned free space... that SSD isn't going to last long otherwise.

SSDs are pretty much immortal now, what's the point.
Jose Walker
Wasn't it solved by using write caching?
David Watson
Swap and hibernation enabled. According to torture tests this drive will last me a couple of centuries.
Nathaniel Powell
Until the controller packs up, anyway. I love how SSD shills like to quote the TBW of their drives. It's like quoting the TBW of a floppy disk: it's completely theoretical, and something else will kill the media long before that.
Brandon Garcia
if I have like 10gigs of ddr2 and maybe 8/16gigs of ddr3 that im not using could I make ramdisks out of that some how with a cheap adaptor?

>buying TLC crap
lmfao you're asking for it
>inb4 power on count
look at the raw value..
Elijah Foster
ssd with ext4
come at me
John Campbell
yer these guys are retarded they all brought TLC drives when price of drives droped and didn't realise its because they use TLC not MLC and TLC only lasts half as long.
I got a 2x111gig MLC drives in 2011 I know they will both die in 2025 or some thing from my heavy computer/gaming use
got a TLC drive in 2016 I know it will die literally before my other ones.
so many butthurt guys with 1TB nvme/sdd
Jacob Thompson
>that SSD isn't going to last long otherwise.
Yes it is, consumer SSDs can in reality do over 2PB of writes.
Colton Torres
>Pro
most poorfags here buy the EVOs which are TLC crap
Christian Thompson
you write more than 20gig a day just from using idiot you realize reading also counts as a write
your drives going to die in 5-7 years just accept it or fuck off.
Dylan Bailey
yet the nands themself will easily last for years to come.
William Perry
6+ years later and still running strong.
Ryan Peterson
still well over 1PB
except I have SSDs older than that, they aren't dead.
My old ass Intel 320 is going to live forever, just to spite you.
Brayden Roberts
i hav 850 pros and run fstrim once in a while
Luis Brown
that's because they are MLC you retard.
new drives made in last like 5 years are TLC and die much faster learn2know any thing.
Asher Wood
My SSD from 2011 is still going strong. It will be obsoleted by the fact that it's only 80gb before it actually dies.
Parker Cook
...
Nicholas Rodriguez
that's because its MLC it lasts like 3x longer than the drives they make now. your drive will die in a couple of years but the ones made in the last 5 might literally die before yours if the person lurks online alot and makes lots of read and writes.
Brandon Sanchez
my 7 year old samsung os drive only has 72 tb of writes
Bentley Scott
t. 1TB TLC owner. it will be dead in 2023 get over it plan ahead.
Benjamin Hernandez
ITT: OP purchased a OCZ SSD that died and now is lashing out at all SSD owners.
Don't deny it OP.
Joseph Rivera
500GB to be specific. and i will get a new one in 2020 because the current simply doesnt have enough storage, so whats the problem?
Wyatt Ward
nononono, you are supposed to be in a state of DESPAIR over your purchase!
your plight was supposed to be make me feel better REEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Owen Clark
Your conflating drive life time and storage technology deprecation.
Oliver James
lol painful user got burned$$$$$$$$$
Bentley Davis
Not necessary, even the cheapest ones last forever.
Juan Sanders
Tomshardware had the same exact drive as mine and it died after 1 PB of writes.
So according to that, and to my usage, my drive will last another 208 years.
Checkmate, faggot
Juan Moore
Here's the usage as a boot drive for the past 4 years.
Christopher Foster
Evos & Pros can handle well over 1000 cycles. I've seen most fail at 2000 or so. Which is actually quite good for TLC.

jesus christ wasting M.2 slot for SATA like speed. get 970 Pro or bust.

enjoy your 500MB/s write/read
David Smith
Bless your heart sweetie.
Evan Morgan
I did, and then I got 3 more SSD's for free because of how fast technology caught up making old ones so laughably obsolete. I can throw them all out now and replace them with a single drive for the cost of a night out and it will still be like 1/6th the speed of a good NVMe drive.
Josiah Rodriguez
>enjoy your 500MB/s write/read
That's more than enough for most people.
Evan Miller
What if i am on Apple and Apple uses multilayered SSD’s because godtier hardware which peasants andropajeets and manchildren say is obsolete, but in truth is more robus and faster SSD capable of handling logs and shit?
Aaron Cooper
>Apple
So you have no REAL need for your computer.
Daniel Garcia
Why yes, Samsung SSDs are of course godtier.
William Moore
with flash memory getting faster and storage size getting larger , your more likely to replace the drive with a newer one rather than waiting for it to break.
Tyler Morales
I meant Apple uses single layered SSD NVME which is the fastest and most reliable and most expensive. Same goes for iPhones and other Apple god tier hardware
Jason Jenkins
Of course high-end Samsung NVMEs are single layered and are therefore the most reliable and expensive.
Bentley Lewis
i wanna fug that chink barbie

When my drive is about to die is when I'm due for an upgrade.
Adam Lopez
I bought one of these. Fight me.

She looks gross.

Samsung m.2 is slow as fuck. Just get a mushkin with 2600MB/s and call it a day
