However, that article was way back in 2013 ... there have been loads of improvements since then. Current Samsung 850 Pro units in AU have a 10 year warranty. And you don't get that kind of warranty on something that will easily fail. Spinning rust has it's place, for sure, but so too does SSD and if an SSD is oldish, then it wouldn't hurt to replace it now; the cost of SSDs is way down on 2013 and will come down further still.
