[quote='-silencer-',index.php?page=Thread&postID=167764#post167764]Some people like to point out that SSDs have a limited amount of writes before blocks of memory are no longer usable, but I've had quite a few standard hard drives fail over the years due to use. Since we're not going to be doing much writing to the drive (only during patches/expansions), this negative aspect doesn't matter.[/quote]

Please, stop posting this myth. The limited amount of writes on affected the very first few SSD's. They all have wear leveling algorithms now, which even assuming constant reads and writes, will easily outlast your computer. It will take 50 years for you to render the drive unusable due to read/writes. If you are still using a 64GB drive in 50 years, you have issues. [url='http://www.storagesearch.com/ssdmyths-endurance.html'][Citation][/url] Couple that with the fact that you will in no way shape or form be constantly reading and writing to the drive, 24hrs a day, at the fastest rate the drive will allow, and you can easily see that the lifetime will outlast even you.

So please stop running around shouting "SSDs Will Die! They have limited read/writes!!1"
Every time you post it, someone who doesn't know any better gets it in their head that SSDs will wear out. Technically, they do, but it will take 50+ years for it to even possibly affect you.
