[dba-Tech] Firefox destroys SSD drives?

[Jim Lawrence]

I have not. I plan to do it later in the day but I have be cognizant that computers are time machines which can move anyone into the future at incredible speeds. My day is very busy so it is planned for the last thing this evening.

I entered -browser.sessionstore.interval/ into my FF browser as recommended
but I get 'server not found'.  Have you tried this?

According to the following article Firefox can eventually destroy an SSD
drive by continuously writing to the disk. The article goes on to provide a
method and settings that should alleviate most of this problem:

This discussion only covers FF...it is undoubted that other browsers have
similar features and therefore similar problems.
