FYI:

Had another WD Blue SSD go bad this morning. This is the 4th to go out with a lifespan of 2-3 years. It was a backup drive and did it loose anything important. So I am done with WD for good. Fortunately I am the kind of guy who keeps 2-3 backups. If I need to use a backup drive, I use a USB docking station. I have a Crucial SSD in my laptop that has lasted me over 4 years and it is built like a tank.

Also, I never throw away any working mechanical HDD's and have 13 of them sitting the shelf. Since I have done SSD upgrades for friends, I always ask if I can have the old mechanical drive and those I add to the collection. Those I also use for backups, especially my installed, up to date, version of BIAB and all the downloaded install files from my account.

Thoughts on Western Digital Blue SSD's?

What do you normally use and how is your success rate and longevity.
