Hi Shaun! I found something wrong with Hard Disk Sentinel. As I was
averaging under 400MB writes per day under Windows 2000 until a cloned
one of my 16GB SDHC cards yesterday. Now it reports my SSD is
experiencing 1.5GB worth of writes per day. Although it is dropping
again down to 1.2GB so far. And as far as I know, cloning a SDHC to a
backup USB hard drive doesn't write anything on the SSD (drive C). So I
have no idea why it added a bunch of extra writes when I don't believe
they occurred.
