Why do people put swap files on SSDs? It sounds silly. If you keep going into swap, buy more RAM, rather than wearing out your drive.
Because it makes your PC faster? An SSD will become obsolete long before it dies. My Crucial m4 256GB should be dead after roughly 70TB written. That's 40GB a day, every day for the next 5 years.
The "average block-erase count" is now at 11, it's one year old (2500 hours on time). It's rated for 3000 erases. The "Percent Lifetime Used" field is still at 0. I can see myself replacing it in one or two years because it's too small, not because the flash has died.
