I have an early Samsung MLC SSD I originally bought for a XP laptop, but got too scared by all the random disk writes of Norton when I checked using Procmon so reverted back to the mechanial drive. As I didn't find away to reduce the random writes.
As Norton Internet Security 2009 is nearing expiry the user will probably want Norton 2010 as a replacement. At least the OEM version is pretty cheap at around £15. But are the other brands more suited to a short life span early SSD? Is Norton 2010 better than 2009 for random disk writes?
Probably don't want to spend more than £20 for a combined antivirus & firewall so that knocks NOD32 out.
