I bought my first SSD, a Samsung 960 EVO 500GB M.2 in September of 2017. It's been running great since then, seeing light to moderate use, but I've heard this things have a shorter lifespan and I've heard about 2 years. It's still running just fine as far as I can tell, but is there anything I should be monitoring or watching for that would indicate when it's about to die? I'd like to keep the downtime to a minimum.
