Hello folks

Has anyone any experience of using a freeware app called SoftPerfect Cache Relocator for moving their browser caches?
I've just built a new system with 980 Pro SSDs and I'm a bit concerned by the write volume, and browsers seem to be the main culprit. They seem to be chewing through 30 - 50GB every day. And that's just fairly typical browsing - I'm not planted in front of youtube all day.
I know my SSDs have a huge TBW rating so even at this rate it should take many years for them to start failing, but even so I am considering moving the caches to improve things.
I know I could relocate the caches myself but I like that this app seems to make it a bit simpler.

So has anyone used it?

Thanks
 
Thanks folks.
To be honest I'm not so worried about SSD wear now, because yes it will take many decades to actually see resulting failure. I guess I just feel an irrational urge to do something about the writes because 40gb per day, through just a bit of browsing, seems so unnecessary!
But then I know very little about software coding so who am I to deem something unnecessary!
Anyway, I'm sure everyone agrees, no further discussion is required.
Thanks folks.
