but as when SSD goes titsup it has no possibility of recovery

Not sure if I'm allowed to mention brand names in Foo, but there's a program that's been around forever that can fix almost any issue with storage media whether it's a HDD, SSD or even flash drives. It can take a very long time to fix everything, but if you don't have any backups it's better than nothing.

Am I naive to think that so long as people need traditional software and even apps there will always be a need for desktops? I can't imagine working on and compiling a program on a Surface, or any other tablet-type of platform.
