AMD StoreMI version 2.0 is on the way
While we're not sure that in the age of NAND based storage people still need solutions like StoreMI, AMD still seems to be working on revision 2.0.
AMD confirmed that this software will receive a completely redesigned version 2.0 in the course of 2020.
“AMD StoreMi technology was redesigned for 2020 and beyond with a new interface and new functionality. Some highlights of version 2.0 include a new caching-based acceleration algorithm that increases data integrity and prioritizes the most used data, speeding up boot times by up to 31% and reducing game load times by up to 13% compared to an HDD by itself. With its smart design and slick interface, AMD StoreMI is ideal for SSD speeds with HDD capabilities. ”
There are no details yet on when we will see the new version of StoreMI, although if the new version works well, it can be an interesting option for to speed up their HDD performance. We will keep you updated on this.

What lifespan? I use SSD from years now.
Oldest one, that i use for now games and earlier was use as Windows drive, after 6 years of use it is still reporting as 98% lifespan remaining. Lifespan is not problem but capacity. 256GB was huge size for SSD 6 years ago, today not so much
In normal home use or even semi professional use it is almost impassible to kill SSD

My too, but i already reach Samsung 840 evo and Corsair Force 4 endpoint

On reliability HDD is still the best.
While i agree with this article a personal cloud or NAS make internal software solution, nearly useless.

Mind if I ask, do you do a lot of database and heavy read/write loads on that particular PC @rl66 ?
