[QUOTE="Deleted Member 3a5v73x, post: 769940"] My 120GB Kingston HyperX SSD for over 4 years still running smooth like day one, replaced from main laptop to fathers, I stressed it much back then with VMware, so 50TB+/- written on its lifespan is already done I believe, so reliability is still top class. For my main laptop I use 250GB Samsung 850 Evo, love it, no signs of failures or problems. My suggestion is to pick one from reputable vendor and you should be good, make sure to have external backups of your valuable data as well. I had very bad experience with HDDs, couldn't recover my external 500GB Seagate HDD with hundreds of family photos saved when it fell down on floor, it was sad. [/QUOTE]
