Not really. SSD's have a limited amount of data that can be written before they are unusable. This limit is so high with modern SSDs, that it's not a concern for most people. The 250GB 850 EVO has a write limit of 75TB. That works out to over 20GB a day for 10 years. Reads are virtually unlimited.

Thanks you very much!
I sit on youtube and watching review videos..
So i hear in that videos that the life of the SSD is not so long..
I mean all of them talk about it like they buy a new ssd every year.

So thanks again!

And in fact, that 75TB is the warranty limit. Actual use has been shown to be much, much more.

I have 7 SSD's in the house, in 3 PC's. Going back 4+ years.
Not a one has 'died'.
