[alie]

What do you guys think about this SSD:

How long it can last for normal use? Or for programming use? Do you think it can last for > 5 years?

I need your opinion here before I decide to buy it, thanks

When it comes to SSD's the most important thing is to check if it can handle a sudden powerloss. There are some models with supercapacitors. Intel use another implementation to handle sudden powerloss -> http://www.intel.com/content/www/us...-series-power-loss-data-protection-brief.html
