• Samsung 840 Pro/Evo Warranty.

Just wondering, if your SSD dies because you have used it to the fullest (wrote all the gigs of memory before warranty runs out), what happens then? Does samsung send you a new one because it broke/died before warranty or not?
You replace the SSD because it's been 10 years and by then we'll easily be seeing multi-TB SSDs for reasonable prices. [editline]11th September 2014[/editline] Realistically speaking.
SSD's are a hell of a lot more durable than they used to be. It's not too much of a worry anymore
Unless you are using a small capacity drive and writing 100GB worth of data per day to it, you will realistically never get over the write limits within the warranty. Note that the amount of data that you need to write directly increases with the capacity of the drive. If you have a 512GB drive, it's going to take 4 times as much writing (give or take a little) compared to a 128GB drive.
Some vendors will send you a product before your defective one reaches them. This is called Express Replacement. I do know that Corsair offers this and you have to pay a fee to cover any loss to them. That fee will be automatically refunded once they get your defective product.
