Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

For this question, I would like to know why the health of the Windows OS drive, which is Solid state, might decrease in health quicker than the other type of hard drive, which does allow Windows to write to it, and pretty much has been in use since I started using this system, but the health did not decrease at all. I only think that perhaps that more data has been written to the solid state drive, and maybe an unknown factor.

Your laptop is compatible with PCIe Gen4 M.2 SSD products.

Upgrade to a 1TB version and enjoy the benefits of low latency and fast memory access.

 

SSD products and OEM legacy electromagnetic hard disks do age, along with all electronic components, including chips.

 

Identify the brand of the installed SSD and download the manufacturer's diagnostics utility. You can run it  to see how much service life is left in the SSD.
