Thor, as much as it's astonishing how fast SSDs are, it's also astonishing how fast they can die. To clarify:

 

They work on the same principle as USB flash drives, allowing 1 000 - 10 000 read/write cycles (MLC memory) or 100 000 (SLC memory), the second ones being a hell of a lot more expensive. If you think 100 000 cycles is a lot, think again, I destroyed a 40GB SSD with SLC memory cells in 9 months by simply using it as storage. But it was dirt cheap so I don't give a f***.

 

A single 256GB SSD costs aproximately 300$, you'll pay a whole lot of money for something that has lightning fast read/write speeds but a very short life cycle. In my honest opinion, you'd be better off buying two 2TB Seagate Barracuda SATA HDDs (7200 RPM) for 200$ both and have slower memory but 8 times more of it. Or six of them (12TB combined) for the same price of two 256GB SSDs and have more memory than god.

 

But that's just my opinion. In the end, it's your money and your PC, not mine.

 

 

 

I experience a lack of memory no matter how much memory I have, 820GB and it's still not enough. That's why I'll be getting four of those 2TB Seagate Barracuda HDDs I mentioned by the end of next month, thank god I have enough money to actually do that now.

Not true i have a last gen ssd and its still kicking around with heavy gaming use, that claim is false.

 

that particular ssd is around 240gb at nearly the 190$ mark after taxes around 200$..
