Hi folks,
I'm soon getting an SSD and just wanted to check something, should I be worried about these SMART results as I am unsure how to read them/if SMART is even useful on an SSD and a google was inconclusive, any help?!
It's the prefail values that I'm not so sure about?
Thanks for any help!!
Rob
