Is it worth replacing a HDD with a SSD for games with constant updates? - Lemmy NSFW

So my HDD (1TB) where I kept my pc games (Battlenet, Steam, Minecraft and such) seems to be corrupt or something (CHKDSK doesn’t bring up any problem but games or launchers sometimes won’t open or load too slow until I reinstall/verify them; I already formated it but nothing changed) so I am being forced to replace it and I am tempted to buy a SSD, but before I do I have a couple of questions: -How worth it will it be in the long term? Since it’s for some games that will get updates constantly-ish (Like Overwatch, Terraria, Deep Rock Galactic, their own launchers, mods and others) I fear it dying sooner than expected (way before the expected 15 years mark). -How cheap could I go? I was thinking about a NS100 [https://www.amazon.com.mx/Lexar%C2%AE-NS100-Unidad-Estado-s%C3%B3lido/dp/B07XH57DDX], a CS900 [https://www.amazon.com.mx/PNY-CS900-Disco-interno-SSD7CS900-120-RB/dp/B07Y5VDNT9] or a WD Green [https://www.amazon.com.mx/Western-Digital-WDS100T3G0A-Disco-Interno/dp/B09JQMGHDW] (no ADATA because their SSD have failed me previously). -What brands/models are decent/acceptable if I have to keep looking for alternatives? If it’s not a good idea I’ll just get a new HDD, but I’d like to know before I decide anything.

Yes, I have not had any game installed on a HDD for many years now. And you’ll most likely get a new SSD in say 5-7 years anyway…
No I reckon you’ll probably replace in 5-7 years time because you’d want a larger one (game install size is starting to really get up there lately) and possibly to also get a faster SSD in the years to come? 5-7 years with PC parts is a long time. Nothing to do with failure at all.
