Friends, do you know sth about ssd lifetime? I've red somewhere that it is
not as good as traditional hdd drives (I mean it's natural lifetime, not
possibility of physical damage of course). It was some time ago, but I was
wondering how it looks like now.
Does anyone meet such thing, did you have any problems with sdd after some
time off using that?

Many thanks
