Noob Question About SSDs

PrChaos · 8 Aug 2011 at 20:56

Well I feel like an idiot for asking this... But do SSD's have a lifespan in which they will only read/write a certain amount of times before they kick the bucket? I was told this is the case. This is why I've never really thought about investing in one (besides the price of them!)

Thanks,

I see. 1.2 million is a lot of hours although I have no idea what that equates to in days lol

50,000 days? Jesus. And I was told they end up dying after about a year... Shows what my college lecturer knows! Thanks for the info guys!
