>64gb

literal waste of money

I'll be using it on an auxiliarry shit laptop, it will be my game/media server

64gb is a lot tbh

once you install that OS you'll only have like 20-30 left

>he buys the chinkshit ssd that's slow as fuck and is going to fail in a year instead of a name brand ssd that only costs 6 bucks more

lubuntu ? I don't think so

lubuntu 👌

first distro I ever used

SSDs do not fail

they do

chinkshit ones do.

We haven't had reports of failing Chink SSD, though

well, less likely than HDD, amiright ?

thank you Aerione

they fail over long periods of time

not really, unless you use your laptop as a hockey puck when it's running

after continous use

Well, SSDs don't have moving parts

So they cannot get wrecked by physical shaking

@Aerione knows his shit.

HDDs will, however

Still

please SSDs can fail but the warning signs are so obvious

Going by the TLC/MLC standards set by the manufacturers

that in a few decades or so

"so obvious"

The cells should last double the duration of an HDD, at worst?

you'll have it not work anymore and move your data out

"OH OOPS YOUR FILE IS CORRUPT : ^)"

if you see a help ! my ssd is broken thread on /g then it's me..

"OH WHAT IS THAT? OH MY FILE SYSTEM JUST GOT CORRUPTED"

Windows 8 and up warn you when you SSD starts to fail

And that's roughly 2 thousand or so cycles before it does

can't like disk drives quarantine the damaged sectors and still be usable except for the damaged part ? why do they have to fuck up all at once ?

So far, I haven't actually seen that warning screencap show up anywhere, so I assume we'll have to wait a bit longer

windows normally warns you when your hdd is about to fail too

doesn't work errytiem

Yeah

Cause HDDs can break physically

You cannot account for that
