I'm giving some thought to putting an SSD in my desktop machine....
I bought my first 38 months ago. I currently have 12 2.5", 3 NVME, and one SATA M.2. Two of the 12 2.5" have had to be replaced under warranty. A 17th, NVME from XPG/AData, was defective and returned for refund. Largest is 512GB (one only). Smallest is 120GB.
Brands: BiWin Crucial Intel Kingston Mushkin (1 of 2 replaced) Pioneer PNY (replaced) SiliconPower TeamGroup XPG (Adata) (1 of 2 returned defective) ZTC
Most are an only internal/installed storage device.
Overall I'd say the defect rate differs little from my experience with rotating rust, so it's worth the improvement in speed to use them.
