A dutch tech site did a durability test for samsung 840 ssd's:

Use google translate if you want to read it:
with 10GB a day write, it will take 214 years before the first uncorrectable error will occur, if you do 30GB a day it will be 25 years.

Modern SSDs have a very long lifetime, even if they're used a lot.

Cgminer does not write anything to your hard drive by default.
Hello, I have a simple question that i just can't find the answer for, My question is; I have an SSD drive running W7 and my cgminer is on my usb, thinking if I run it from there does cgminer reads and writes to my windows drive ? I hate to lose my ssd if cgminer reads and writes 24/7-365 on the ssd. any help is much appreciated, thanks !
