Mark, Just purchased two 512 Go SSD drives to replace the HDs of my MBPs while one of them went slowing down dramatically over the 15 last days. In reading your post, it seems that my two 2 TB LaCie TimeMachine backUp drives won't become less important than before…
Will let know there what the operational live cycle of those SSDs is to the end but, in your experience, do you think that i can expect to get them OK for weeks, months or years with 8 Go RAM in each MBP ?
