SSDs have a record of lasting 5-7 years, but nowadays technology is advancing a lot so after upgrading you can get a life of 10 to 15 years. The lifespan of an SSD depends on factors such as its type, data writing, and temperature. SSDs have limited write cycles, typically in the hundreds of thousands or millions, which affects their lifespan. Writing a lot of data, especially for photographers or videographers, can cause the SSD to degrade rapidly. Operating an SSD in high temperatures can also cause it to degrade more quickly.
