I'm building a new gaming pc and have heard conflicting reports about the lifespan of a ssd. I want to get a ssd for faster loading in games and I heard it can help with stutter issues as well (ie. Skyrim). I can't seem to get a solid answer as to the average lifespan of a ssd. I heard they only last on average 2-3 years depending on size and how many times your computer writes to it a day. Is that the case? Cause I don't want to drop $150+ bones on one if it's gonna die in 2 years... I'll just live with the slower loading screens.
Bottom Line: Should I be concerned about the lifespan at all? If it helps, I'm interested in a crucial m4 256gb, as amazon has them on sale for $169.
