I had an Intel drive, forget which series, which lasted me a couple years before I gave that laptop away to someone else, and they continue to use it now, which has been several more years.

I currently have a couple Samsung 840 Pro's which are awesome.

I completely intend to buy whatever Samsung pro is the next in line as soon as I need a new one. Unless I see a screamin' deal on an Intel.

OK, the hard drive on my windows box is getting old, and every now and then during startup, I hear a short burst of "chattering"......no such problem on my Linux laptop, but it does not get as much use, either...

I want to replace my aging hard drive with a solid state unit.

Suggestions?  Advice?  Personal experiences to share?

My Dell System was purchased in December 2010 (I but them heavily loaded, and hope they will still be good for a long time, hardware-wise.), and runs all day, every day I am home, which is most of the time....I started it shortly b4 5am today and will shut down about 10pm....typical day.....I consider it pretty heavy use.

TIA
