    Is it necessary to move the temporary folders of Windows 10 to a second HDD disk, having an SSD disk, to extend its life cycle, or is this unnecessary today?
    Because I have read that even subjecting the ssd to large gb of writings a day, it would take many years to degrade

    You wont use up the lifespan of modern SSDs in normal usage.

    My Crucial 256Gb SSD reports 92% life remaining and 32TB of data written to it (that's 32 Terabytes). Its been installed for perhaps 4 years now and is performing faultlessly. It gets plenty of use with Windows Insider builds being installed weekly.

    The whole point of an SSD is increased speed for operations. If you offload temp files, scratch disks, page files etc to slower media, why bother with an SSD? *Huh
    The manufacturers are the best people to ask since they design the drives, and I've never seen any suggest offloading those sort of operations to traditional media, you could say well they wouldn't cause they want you to wear the drive out sooner, but that makes no sense, if a certain manufacturers drives wore out sooner you wouldn't buy them again, would you? *Smile
