So long Crucial... thanks for the fishes

Back in early 2023, Samsung 970 Evo Plus 500GB drives were going for under $30. Should’ve bought hundreds.

Disk wearout - how buggered am I?

I read that a lot, but my Samsung 970 EVO 1TB still has only 1% wearout, it's running for about 3 years now. Are only cheap drives affected with low TBW?

Swapping out Fusion Drive HDD for SSD

Yes, you can do that. But usually, the SSD part of a (former) fusion drive is way too small for that to make sense (32 to 128GB). These sizes might be enough for the system to run but you have to remember the system needs space for cache and stuff. My suggestion: Would be better you buy an SSD like

$640 for a 2tb ssd…

Yeah, in short, these are the crème de la crème of SSDs and what every data center and AI slop shop is gunning for.

Advice

6800 is not a high end GPU. It's 2 generations old Mid tier. The 11500 is also a low tier chip. The 850w psu is way oversized.
