It all depends on usage! Both technologies have their pluses and minuses. You can have spinning rust active for over 10 years, but are subject to start/stop cycles. SSDs have write limits, requiring wear-leveling to prevent writing to the same cell over and over. Basically: YMMV but both techs are "reliable". -derek On Mon, November 3, 2025 9:31 am, Boris Borisov via Ale wrote: > Decade old question.
