will still wear, since its your primary drive and everytime it reaches it P/E cycle. my Intel 530 SSD have already made 3.7TB writes since i bought it half a year ago. i dont even install any games on it shocking.gif

try this perhaps? do like what i plan to do in future

buy 2 SSD. 1 120GB , 1 500GB or 1TB SSD. then put all OS files on 120GB SSD, the rest dump to the bigger cap SSD. that way, even if max writes reached and you need to replace SSD (few years time) you dont have to reinstall OS drive or do anything with primary drive.

cons of that, expensive and takes up 2 2.5" slot in your casing

how do you check total writes ?

mine is SSD 330 60GB which i bought 2 years ago, still alive and kicking. i use it for playing guild wars 2 only. gw2 update pretty frequent so i guess a lot of read and write has been going on...
