Samsung SSDs are more reliable, overall. Consider those, next time.

Also, leave a little room at the end of each disk volume unallocated (not formatted). The SSD can utilize it to swap it for “sectors” (memory chips) which are slowly going bad. There are already some in reserve you can’t see, but not many.

Ditto on Samsung SSD. Got a Samsung 500 GB SSD two years ago to upgrade an old iMac. Works perfectly (knock on wood).
