Connectors are rated for a given number of connect/disconnect cycles. For USB-A it's a minimum of 1500[1]. If your laptop has a cheap connector which isn't rated for more, and you do two cycles a day (start/end of day, start/end lunch), then you'll go through the rated number of cycles in less than two years. Doesn't mean the connector will fail right away but it might start to act up. Connectors are not forever. [1]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_hardware#Durability |
