Longer life, SSD's have in certain models up to 1 Million hours MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) which is equivalent to 114 years running 24/7.

Is that true? I have heard the complete opposite.

536965 2007-03-30 09:24:00 depends on the type of technology I'd say that a solid state drive in THEORY should last a hell of a long time as they have no moving parts..... drcspy (146)
536966 2007-03-30 13:13:00 Very little friction or none really and due to the fact that they consume very little power, they wouldn't even get heated a lot so yeah, they should last damn near infinity. beeswax34 (63)
