I've taken the plunge and ordered new SSD and enclosure.

I can't justify the cost of course, but this has been my life, ever since my 
first hardware maintenance course in 1972 (Honeywell DAP16 for temperature 
analysis at a new AGR nuclear power station in Scotland), through all the 
years until I led the team who maintained the software in 10 languages on the 
15-mainframe Cyber 960 system that runs the National Grid. Well, it did then, 
but that was in the '90s. Since then of course the landscape has changed 
utterly, what with the lunatic mania for 'sustainable' energy sources.

I retired in 1989 but kept my interest in all things computer. I'm sure it 
will be with me until my last day. 

Anyway, I just wanted to show how much I couldn't resist buying the new kit.
