Thanks for that info guys, I knew there was a life limit issue with SSDs but I didn't know to what extent. The only defrag I've done is that associated with those Steam files.

I googled it some more and found a utility called CrystalDiskInfo. It reports all parameters as 100% including expected life. Its about 17 months old and only used for OS and Flight Sims, anything else is on 2 HDDs. I even keep emails etc on a HDD. So, no panic

If anyone wants more info...
