    Apparently if you take an SSD past 75% they crap out. Or so hands on trial, , and Dealer advice indicates.
    By all means get a Defender. If you get a good one, you'll be happy. If you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher.

    no need to assume big fella....

    have had to play with many hundreds over time..

    built many a graphics workstation and high end business machine with them, but you need to work with in their limitations and take advantage of their strong points.

    i use one in my own machine as well, in the manner mentioned above

    boot from it and have pretty much anything that i need to keep mapped over to a raid array

    much easier to have a safe place than try to recover that which is lost.

    I put an SSD into my wife's 5 yr old Asus. I'm expecting that to extend its life by 2-3 years.

    I upgraded to a SSD in my MacBook. I use time machine to back up to a NAS. This SSD 95% full. I need to rejig my system so most stuff is on the NAS.
