Team. Today, my forth SSD failed. IN exactly the same way as the others, sudden and terminal.
As much as I will appreciate the responses along the lines of 'mines been fine for five years' etc, for me its been a bit of a disaster.
I am starting to believe the off the shelf SSDs don't like apples filing system or something. I am also starting to believe its only effecting me lol.
Part of the issue I suspect is I look for as much storage as I can afford, such as the last two failures of sandisk 256gig models at 140 quid.
So perhaps the old adage buy cheap by twice holds here.
I actually only really need 256gig. For me I am not interested in lots of space i have servers and external drives for that.
But I need other options within the budget of 150 quid, 'cause thats what amazon will refund me and thats all I have right now.
Hybrid drives are 70 quid for a TB. Has anyone experience of these? Are they cheap because they are now falling out of favour.
I do like the speed of SSD, I don't think I could work without it now, but right now I cannot afford the best in class and 64gig is to little.
