3 months agoI wondered the same thing.
Hi. My name is Buck Figots. I am an avid human rights proponent.
I wondered the same thing.
I got three, used Samsung 970PRO M.2 drives for $40 each. Looking at them with Crystal Disk and one is 100% health, one is 72%, one is 52%. I dont see the 52% reaching 0% before my system is replaced within the next 5-7years.

Y’all dont block all the .exe files with your firewall? I been doing that for years. I anticipate being stuck with the near current version of Photoshop I have now. An update never occurs, but thats okay. Ive got windows update disconfigured and blocked, too.
Ive found that originally, updates actually fixed problems, but it seems for the last few years, updates only benefit the company and not the user. They are either trying to reinvent the wheel, increase data mining, restricting access in the name of better services, to gear up towards changing to some bullshit form of a subscription service (again, to provide you better services! Better for them…)
And, sometimes, updates just straight up break things. I’ve soured to allowing any updates when things are already working smoothly.
