the problem with farming is that it will destroy your SSD after a while.

Quote "Chia is a different animal, though. According to MyDrivers, mining Chia can trash a 512GB in 40 days, while a 1TB SSD lasts twice as long, and a 2TB SSD can give up the ghost in just 160 days, or barely over five months."

I liked the idea when I first heard about it, but doesn't seem like something that's going to work in the long run?
