This is a good question, but the MacBook pro's (especially the MAX) is focused towards Video or Content Creators who will use the internal SSD for rendering 4-8K etc. I am also curious as to how long will it last given the extensive video rendering etc. Any ideas?The SSD will outlast the life of your computer.
There's a TBW written total capacity, after which an SSD is running on borrowed time. So it depends how much one writes to the SSD. With 8 GB of memory and moderately intense usage, there's a huge amount of swap written to the M1 SSD. My Mac Mini with 512 GB SSD (probably 300 TB TBW endurance) is already at 10 TB a few weeks in. I'm worried.I think SSDs last at least ten years.
Oh good to hear! Where are the results of your research?I made research last week and count it for 1TB SSD. The result was that it will last more years than I will be alived. So I think people underestimate these SSD swaps.
But I will stay with Max, as I do not like to have everythink perfect 😀
