Good goyim, buy that (((lightening))) (((fast))) (((ssd))) those 3 second startup times are totally worth the same money as a fully functioning HDD at 1/3 the storage.
>>57941782
>lightening
Yep, so you're indeed retarded. Thanks for letting us know.
>>57941793
The standard guarantee for an unpowered SSD is 5 years without data loss.
Kill yourself.
>>57941804
But you dont really have an argument. So your clever meme is moot.

yeah i had a ssd and failed after 3 years. i would rather have something that lasts.

Trying to open a file or two doesn't mean that everything on it is fine. You should have hashed everything before putting it into a drawer and then rehash it after pulling it back out.
It is fact that SSDs are subject to heavy bit rot if unpowered. Though, expected, cucks will either defend or deny this, just as with every other shitty thing that has been pushed into mainstream over the past decade or so.
>>57941866
I've heard people here say it's anything from 7 days to 7 months. Any number as long as it makes SSDs look bad...
ssds are unnecessary to be honest
if you have a fast cpu and a lot of ram, you don't really need one. are you really that impatient that you can't wait for files to transfer to or from your hdd?
i would buy a 10000 rpm harddrive over a ssd

Make up your fucking mind.
This anti SSD movement confuses me. Trolls or are they just this stupid? I know the retardsexist because one of my friends deny their usefulness also.
>>57941633
>SSD can lose data in as little as 7 days without power
Just a few weeks ago I dug out my SSD I used back in 2013, only 128GB, but Windows 8 on it booted fine.
>>57943989
I have several HDDs for long term storage, 15000RPM SAS drives.
But I use SSD's because I can, jelly poorfag?
Not a single downside, if you don't consider cost.
>>57944137
Actually retarded, plus a few kids who bait thinking it's funny.
Lazy ass neckbeards hate SSDs because they are new and cost much. To feel better they make up shitty delusions in their mind.

Yeah, that doesn't make you any less retarded, shit for brains.
What's the point in turning off your pc?
>>57943927
And you're a fucking idiot for listening to what people say. The manufacturer warrants the drive will hold data for 5 years, period.
Way to suck me into a troll thread faggot.
HDD MASTER RACE
dirty ssd meme peasants
>>57941633
I've left my SSD (OCZ) unplugged for nearly a year, still works fine, no data loss.
>>57944483
Post uptime.
It's in Task Manager and in Performance tab. I can't post mine. I powered it off a day ago because pc couldn't detect headphone DAC.

But obviously, that's the best you got, since your original argument is nothing but logical phallacies.

My 840 pro 256GB RAID 0 array once went w/o power for around 2 months. Everything was still good.

OP do you know your RAM will lose data instantly without power! Holy shit! What a scam. Quick make a thread about it.
>>57945057
Not really, it takes a while, just get them out quick and cool them, they will stay fresh for hours, with all your shit on them.
I will never understand anti-SSD shills. Especially in 2016+
Haven't had an HDD for the past 3 years.
256GB system/games and 1TB storage SSD only.
Poorfags out please.
>>57945431
Same, it's not even that expensive actually
when the fuck will SSDs become cheaper
I want a 1tb one without paying a thousand
>>57945491
I could easily go for a 1TB main + 4TB storage drive but why bother?
>>57945526
Wtf, what currency are we talking about? Because the last 1TB drive I bought was $400

NOOO!!! delete this!!! I literally sold my car and my wife's sons toys in order to afford a 256 GB SSD!!! just like /g/ told me!!! this can't be happening!!!
>>57941633
Even if it were true, as long as your PC is plugged in and the power supply isn't switched off all your internal and external devices will receive power. Which means you can leave your PC turned off for over a month and nothing bad will happen. Of course, you're baiting and the 7 day expiration period is false.
>>57943989
SSDs are just another stage in a long line of trying to cope with shitty manufacturing of software.
Haiku loads off a hard drive in about the same time as Linux and Windows does off an SSD. Fucking hell, Windows XP is only a bit slower.
>>57944491
>The manufacturer warrants the drive will hold data for 5 years, period.
Are you sure it states that it will hold it without power? Does it say that explicitly?
>>57944884

>>57946016
Yes.
It makes sense that storing drives at higher temperature increases the risk of data loss due to thermal fluctuations, but why would the data last longer is the drive is operated at higher temps?
>>57943989
If you are patient, you can make do with a current gen celeron and 4GB of RAM. Just wait it out, right?
>>57945861

>still my million mongolian vowel separators triforce from last night
Come on
I have some HDDs and MicroSDs with important data, that haven't been used in many months (probably even a year).
Should I be worried?
>>57947980
Nope.
>>57946000
This. This soooo much.
>>57942635
That's the entire site summed up.
>He fell for the SSD meme

I have left my rig without power for over a month several times and I have never lost any data.

>anti ssd fags will never understand how much difference it makes
its not about those sweet boot times, literally everything else is faster
need to verify the integrity of a 10gb file? 1-2 mins tops
opening a browser with over 70 other tabs to load is basically instant too
being able to move a fuck load of files around and still have a functioning pc is a plus too
>>57941633
REEEEEE ADVANCEMENT IS BAD REEEEEEEE
left my pc unpowered for 10 months without issue. also >>57941656
If that's the case then why can I boot my laptop?
/g/ is so fucking retarded.
>>57941633
Because hdd are more reliable right?
>test is done using extreme temperatures and a EoL SSD
Interesting but has no basis for irl usage for the average joe. Even lightly worn-out SSDs will retain data for years for the average joe.
>protip: HDD will also shit themselves at these extreme temperatures.
