Hi,
so currently there is some work going on around where I live and power outages happen almost daily now. Unfortunately they almost always happen while
I am using my computer. My question is whether these power outages can have some permanent negative impact on my pc and its performance. I also noticed that my ssd driver wear indicator went down by 1%.
Thank you for your answers.
 
Solution
Windows doesn't like that and yes SSD's can be affected by power loss just like HDD's. I suggest you get a battery backup that will give you enough time to shut down properly.
