Quote:SSD life span (read online/from friends experience): 1-2 yearsI bet your Friend use a cheap brand SSD . My 40GB Intel SSD is still working till now (bought it in May , 2011)
There is only 2 brands that I trust : Intel and Plextor . The rest are just meh thought I heard some Samsung SSDs are pretty good
I recommend Intel SSD 335 80GB (or 180GB) with 500MB/s read and 450MB/s write , you will have both durability and high performance
