   HG>The problem with Windows is that it writes so much to the disk when

   HG>or DOS. I'd be surprised if read cycles really limit the SSD's life.   
      
   I usually do not leave Flash drives plugged in but when I did I have I   
   have never noticed any flash drive activity light flashing.   
   NOW tou are right there is heavy Hard Drive light activity during   
   shutdown.
