> Flash still has limited write cycles. Its for data you probably wont write more than once an hour, but not virtual memory.
You can write data to SSDs a lot more than once an hour, even virtual memory. The drive's firmware (assuming it does its job) will do wear-leveling and spread the logical writes across different physical locations on the drive.If you write 20GB of data per day to a modern 480GB SSD you can expect 25 years of service. (Realistically, something else will probably fail before then) Example - http://www.anandtech.com/show/8520/sandisk-ultra-ii-240gb-ss... |
