What I really mean of course is not that I "expect" the SSD to last 50 years (when the warranty is only 5 years) but that I would expect that it will last at least the 5 years that were warrantied (since the warranty is for "bytes written" or "years", whichever is less). Over the past 40 years I have found that most devices if treated properly seem to last practically forever or quick sudden death (the bathtub curve). It has almost entirely been my experience that "forever" has limitations other than continuing to work in accordance with the manufacturers specifications. I have generally found that the specifications become insufficient compared to what is currently on the market at a much faster rate than actual failure. In other words the thing becomes useless due to excessively small size, slow speed, ancient technology, whatever, long before actual failure. --- The fact that there's a Highway to Hell but only a Stairway to Heaven says a lot about anticipated traffic volume. _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@mailinglists.sqlite.org http://mailinglists.sqlite.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
