If BB is installed to your SSD, and you wish to export or drag and drop huge sized WAV files, or simply Save As a .wav of .mp3 file, you should take care not to be in a hurry and put 'em on that SSD.

Today's commodity 2D MLC flash has raw wear-out in the 2,000 to 3,000 write cycle range. Empirically derived from multiple testing.

Quote:

The future direction of endurance is downwards (towards worse). Also - SSD designers have reported that when they have measured endurance in this classic way - the specs in recent flash generations are tighter than they used to be - with less headroom.

That is what they pay me to know.

The faster the SSD, the quicker it can wear out the memory.
