The theory was that, since flash memory is consumable and has a maximum number of writes it can sustain before going bad, you wouldn't want to wear it out too soon. The theoretical assumption is still valid as it was back in the day, but this seems to not bother people too much. After all, if you only build once per year, or even less often, the SSDs will weather the stress. -- Svi moji e-mailovi su kriptografski potpisani. Proverite ih.
