Quote - I believe SSDs actually have a better track record than regular hard drives....
That depends on how you look at it. But, I have sent more SSDs back that I ever have hard drives total. Hard drives have been out for years, SSDs are new and I have seen more SSD total failures already.
Another thing to consider is that an SSD is doomed by design. You can write to the same sector on a hard drive about a millions times on average. You can write to a SSD cell about 10k max. The memory areas degrade with every read as well, just not as fast as a write does.
Some companies SSDs come with a much better warranty, and service, than others as well. I won't name names thou....
