In article , says... I have not jumped on the SSD bandwagon with Harry yet. I just don't like the fact that they tell you these things have a finite life (10,000 writes). On a system drive, that might happen pretty fast. (something like the page files) I've been running a SSD as my system disk for about a year and a half without issue. Also have a 512 GB SSD for my games. No issues. They're much faster, cooler, and use very little power. Spinners will fail too. For the average user who's happy to just chug along, they're pointless, but for a so-called "power user" they're the cat's meow. It gets down to expense. So if you don't want to pay up, it's fine to do without. I expect prices to keep coming down until they match spinners. When I set up my Synology server, I bought four "premium" two terabyte hard drives to put in it. I don't know why they were considered premium, but they were "highly recommended" for servers. They weren't that much more expensive than "ordinary" drives. So far, they've been running without a hitch, knock on plastic.  I sell my desktop iMac every three years, when the AppleCare expires. My current iMac has an SSD drive...so far, no problems. My laptop also has an SSD that has operated so far without a hitch. Spinning drives are pretty much obsolete for personal computers. |
