How much do you expect your drive to write each day? The Samsung 512 gb Pro SSD is designed to write 80gb per day, up to 300 TBW or 10 yrs (warranty) 300 TBW= 300,000 gb written before you exceed your warranty status That will probably last as long if not longer than a platter drive. The question you need to ask is how much space do you need?
depending what i am doing, up to 80gb a day between the 2 drives. ive got all 3 hdd's behind a 110cfm 12cm scythe fan, and im getting good temps on them. get air flowing over yours and it will help
Bro, when I plug in my HDDs ready to servicing images I put cold water w/ice in a plastic pan to cool the thing down lol Even so my drives doesn't last long enough as I wish they could. FWIW, I am a poor guy, financially speaking, and have to do some ludicrous remedies to workaround issues.
im getting 17 and 18c on the 2 2.5" drives and 20c on the 3.5". when i occasionally have to pop the side panel off, all drives are cool to the touch
Bro I live down here in Mexico, at this very moment we are at 28 degrees Celsius Can't figure out why this damn warm/hot weather
about a year ive had the 2.5s, with a heavy workload, if i get 3 years, im happy. if i had bought a sammy 250gb ssd and killed the bugger, thats 90quid down the bog and hard to find. if you kill an ssd quick, can you afford to replace it?
mehico is a hotter country than the uk. if possible, place pc near a window thats in the shade, air will be cooler, if you can rig a custom air inlet from an open window to pc, it'll help.
Just get a 256gb 2.5" ssd for your servicing. That will out last any hdd, be quicker, & probably out last your pc...
Ah! This is a good answer especially coming from you Flipp3r, no offence to others who have replied. Turns out Flipp3r is a technician/IT or sort of Jack of All Trades So he has first hand experience on such task like servicing Windows images and the like. You know servicing images requires lots, TONS of read/writes over a HDD/SSD. My HDDs I've been using all these years won't out last that much.
