Ultraviolet -- Also as Nude pointed out, it's incredibly cheap to add one even if you don't already have it. Doesn't seem like there's a good reason to go with an old style SATA SSD these days.[10:52 pm]
Ultraviolet -- dumbduckydumbducky shouted: "almost ten years old"
5+5 also = 10. Are you sure your mobo doesn't have the m.2 port for an NVMe drive? My previous mobo which would be about 10 years old at this point had one[10:43 pm]
NudeRaider -- NudeRaiderNudeRaider shouted: dumbducky There's always a risk, sure, but I wouldn't actually expect it unless you ran a server on it or something. They are way more durable than HDDs.
my Samsung 830 from 13 years ago is still working, though not being used much anymore, admittedly.[10:39 pm]
NudeRaider -- dumbduckydumbducky shouted: Attention nerds: my old SSD is almost ten years old and probably at risk of dying in the next year, I assume. What's a good 2.5" SATAIII replacement as cheap as possible? Must be at least 250GB (do they make them that small still?)

a mainboard that old will need replacement in the foreseeable future anyway, so for 11 Bucks you can add an m.2 port to it and get an actually good SSD that you can take over to a new pc.[10:20 pm]
Moose -- WD Blue 250 is $40, that would probably meet "good" but not "as cheap as possible"
