The darlings at the moment are the Samsung 830 and Crucial m4 (and possibly the new Plextor M5 Pro), but unless you figure out what it is that's writing so much data to your SSD, you're just going to kill it too.
If it was being hammered with that many writes the drive light would be on continuously. Is it possible that the drives old firmware caused this... or that the drive is going bad? I have 9 months left of a three year warranty so maybe I should contact Intel about this ..... or are they going to say the SMART says it's healthy ...end of conversation.

I am aware of every service and everything that autoloads so if that TB number is excessive I don't know where writes are coming from. I have too much physical RAM for it to be the swap. Are Crucial still the current best SSDs Greg? thanks
