    well you said it yourself you write to it a lot thats why its going down so quick, i advice you switch to a 1tb-2tb ssd if you are worried about lifespan

    i remember reading that a 250gb ssd can reach 10 years lifepsan if you only write less than a certain amount to it

    you could also buy a HDD for your work but run everything on a ssd
