    Check the life remaining on the drive with crystaldiskinfo it should give you a nice percentage of life but I go off how much data it has seen.

    An SSD from 5 years ago is probably rated for around 200TB written, but I would check your model. As long as you are below the TBW with no corrupted sectors, the SSD is fine to keep using. I would probably back it up more frequently, and keep checking crystaldisk for any changes.


  • They are shit cars, but this is nothing compared to the other car manufacturers; sticking pedals on Toyotas (21 dead), Ford Pinto (500-900 dead, was an $11 part production deemed unnecessary), GM knew about a faulty switch in 2003 but only fixed it in 2014 (and 174 deaths), Volkswagen lied about emissions causing god knows how much damage, even airbags have killed like 24 people due to a defect. The list is endless, and no car company is better than the other.

    Bikes ftw.
