Remember these? Very popular in their day, I think it was the first SSD I bought (although that may have been an Intel 180) and it has just died on me. I was doing some sorting and tried to copy a heap of stuff but it doesn't want to know so another one for the bin.
How long did they last? I have only recently started using SSD so it would
be nice to have an idea of longevity vs mechanical drives.

Mine's still going as a TV's pvm storage.
Do not worry about SSD storage lifespan unless you are filling and
clearing the drive completely on a daily basis.

I had wondered about using 4 TB SSDs in my CCTV recorder instead of HDDs.
Each 4 TB disc will hold 17 days footage and then gets overwritten 68
days later so the SSD would get overwritten 5 times a year.
My DVR can take up to 5 of these so that gives me 85 days footage
coverage from my 8 cameras.
