properly setting up a computer for using an SSD is more important than anything else. if you go in assuming a drive is a drive is a drive... like whats been mentioned before, you start having failures. This is becasue the computer treats it like a conventional harddrive. an SSD is not a conventional drive and does not operate in the same ways.
Do you know how hard defragging an SSD is on an SSD? one.. it's not needed... and two... SSD's block write, where conventional spinning disks can seek out a specific bit and change it. so you end up rewriting the same blocks over and over and over and over and over to move tiny pieces of information (since the entire block needs to be rewritten if a small part is read/written.) depending on your disk, a 32k block could have to be rewritten 32 times over to shuffle a couple KB file around in a defrag. SSD's have 100% of the data available instantly. moving segmented files back together to sequentially read the data later is pointless when the entire disk structure is available instantly at any time.
LSS, don't ever run defrag on an SSD you'll grenade a considerable portion of your drives lifespan.
enabling things like TRIM allows garbage collection to happen much easier and faster and eliminate needless read/write cycles... and reduces the amount of read/write cycles the SSD does just in regular use. this will reduce your cell cycling probably 10 fold.
if you run an SSD, setup the drive with overprovisioning. Samsung SSD's make this super easy to do now. what this does is take about 10% of your drive and set it aside and leaves it untouched. when you eventually DO start having issues with sectors going wonky, the SSD simply stops using those bits and moves them over to freshy unused cells that have never in the drives lifetime been operated. this can extend the life of the drive many times over yet again.
SSD's are a lot more reliable than they used to be. Many people, myself included daily drive SSD computers (some of them going on 10 years old) with no issues since they are setup properly. I've tossed more platter drives in the trash in the last month than I have failed SSD's since I first started using them. (specifically 2 SSD's, both being Kingston Digital SSDNOW V300 drives if anybody wants to keep track)
plus... WD blue 1tb SSD's are 120 bucks. double the price of a comparable size platter drive, but really about as cheap and small as these things get these days...getting closer and closer into platter territory in terms of space and price... but getting many times over the speed of one.
