Why do SSDs have a limit rewrites whereas from what I recall, HDs didn’t have this concern? (though they broke often haha) SSD’s have no moving parts, so I’m curious, is it just the current that damages it over time? What happens exactly?
We say there are no moving parts but thats not actually accurate. There are microscopic switches that work by bending, they eventually fatigue enough to break. Just like bending a paperclip back and forth.
