So I just found a file on my SSD that I can't read fully anymore. Worried. Got the stats. I don't really know much about SSDs. Does this mean this one might begin failing on me?

@dosnostalgic yeah these things are great as cache drives, but they go bad more suddenly and completely than skim milk. i have learned never to store anything important on one. for that, the old magnetic rocks are somehow still, rather alarmingly, the most stable for everyday use.

@azurelore @dosnostalgic Glad to hear that as I never changed from magnetic disks and always had my suspicions (about everything!) as retro person should |:>

I saw someone say info sec today is about not installing anything from 2023 :)
