Personally, I don't worry about wearing out my ssd's. I just use and enjoy them.
The horror stories from years ago don't hold true on todays ssd's.
I have 7 ssd's and have never wore out any of them.

I think this perceived issue of wearing out SSDs / HDDs is unjustified. I use my 5 year old desktop daily and its SSD health still shows 100% as measured by the Intel SSD utility. My SSD based laptop still shows 100% health after 3 years use. I maintain two old PCs from 2006 and their HDDs work fine. In fact I've never had a HDD fail after using PCs at home and work for 30 years
Couldn't agree more with all points, Jim. Defender is quite adequate and a backup is the quickest solution. The #1 golden rule is to backup always.
How about the analogy of washing dishes in a feces-infested sink? I guess some are just gluttons for punishment. In a twisted way I actually find it amusing to read such threads. Let's act real important and write up 50+ posts of utter nonsense. Never ceases to amaze me.
