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?
In: Technology
In an SSD, bit of data is stored in a jail cell with no doors. To get data into the cell, physics magic is used to push the data through the wall. Each time data is pushed into the cell, it requires a bit more power. Eventually there’s not enough power to push through the wall and data can’t be saved anymore.
