If you're using Spotify's desktop application to listen to music, you'd better temporarily change your habit and listen to your favorite music from the Web or from a Spotify mobile app.
Several subscribers reported that the apps streaming της υπηρεσίας για Mac, Windows και Linux γράφουν εκατοντάδες gigabytes δεδομένων κάθε μέρα στους σκληρούς δίσκους των χρηστών, ακόμα και όταν το λογισμικό είναι σε αδράνεια και υποτίθεται ότι δεν αποθηκεύει σε τοπικό επίπεδο, σύμφωνα με το Ars Technica.
It's not clear why this is happening, but you should definitely avoid the Spotify desktop app for now, because the very common enrollment data on your hard drive can shorten its lifespan.
Even SSDs that do not have moving parts have a limited number of write-read cycles, and unnecessary Spotify recordings with tones of data can cause a decrease in performance.
Spotify said in a statement to Ars Technica that it has fixed it problem to version 1.0.42, which will be released soon if it is not already released for all users.
