I hear the same thing.  6 years ago I bought a 1TB SSD for my work
computer.  It came with a 5 year guarantee.  I was untrusting at first.
This is my daily driver.  I under use it in that I do not store as much
data on it as it really can hold.  I run anti-virus almost weekly and I
treat it just like it was a spinner.  I have forgotten it is an SSD
except at boot time....

I assume there are some lesser quality SSDs out there.

The price has dropped.

I like the SAMSUNG 870 EVO Series -
https://www.newegg.com/samsung-500gb-870-evo-series/p/20-147-792 You can
get a 500GB SSD for $60.00

Turn your spinners into backup drives.  I put the SSD in the first drive
slot and the spinner in the second drive slot.
