I was under the same impression that SSDs have a shorter life span than 
HDDs, but after i saw this test I don't think this is so much of an 
issue as it was when SSDs appeared.
Sure there is still plenty of room for improvement, but the SSDs of 
today are IMO doing pretty well in terms of durability.
