What do you use a SSD (Solid State Drive) for anyway?

I feel like an idiot now because I just asked that.

Storing stuff on.

Normally you use an SSD for storing the operating system and files that don't have many read/writes - normally applications. The best setup is to have an SSD for the OS and the core applications you use then another standard drive for data.

SSD's have limited read/write times on each sector, so eventually you just write them out causing the drive to fail slowly. All be it a big number it does eventually run out, thats the main pitfall of an SSD.

NO WAY! I'd never of guessed that. I knew it was to store stuff on but I just didn't see what the point of them were.

Then again my question was misleading but thanks for answering it.
