[QUOTE="brambedkar59, post: 1096898, member: 61084"] Theoretically yes, it affects the life span as it essentially saves a snapshot of your system's RAM to your SSD when you shut down. On the next startup, Windows loads this snapshot instead of going through the full boot process. Practically not that much unless you shutdown every hour daily. Modern SSDs are pretty resilient. I only lost 7% in my 500GB SSD (system drive with way too many clean installs done than I would have liked) and 2% on my 1TB SSD in more than 2 years of usage. They will outlast the lifespan of this laptop easily. Edit: Updated the % lifespan of SSDs as I remembered them incorrectly before. [/QUOTE]
