Storage aspire 3

My aspire 3 has a 128GB WD SSD ant it's about a month since I brought it. My total host writes are 325GB and I would like to know how to reduce it or is it ok and I would like to know if anyone shares my experience.

If you write 5GB a day, the theoretical number of days to SSD failure is calculated as follows:

(a) 100 TB = 100,000GB.

(b) 100,000GB divided by 5GB per day means your SSD is expected to die in 20,000 days.

(c) And 20,000 days divided by 365 days per year means your SSD is expected to die in about 55 years or in the year 2076.

I think you should worry more about other things dying before the SSD dies.

What do you mean by "your total host writes are 325GB"? Jack E/NJ

A SSD has a life span. It's measured by the amount of data written to it over its life span, so my SSD has 100TBW what means I can write 100TB before it dies and I have already written 350GB. My question is how did I write somuch ?? I don't save anything to my C: drive paging file is off but it manages to write about 5GB per day. So every day my total host writes goes up 5-4GB every day.
