SSDs

I like the SSD cards. I only have experience using Intel drives. The 
ones I bought a little over 2 years ago failed at or around the 2 year 
mark. I am told they are much better now. Read operations are so much 
faster on those drives. I am hoping that my new ones last longer and 
expect that they will. Even with the short wear time on my first drives 
I still use them and will continue to use them in the future.
