    Hello!

    I`ve upgraded my old 5739G with new Kingston HyperX Fury 120Gb SSD. Before running any benchmarks for it I would like to know is there any danger for my SSD of using those synthetic tests such as Crystal Disk Mark and others?

    Maybe that is stupid question, but I`m just new to such equipment.

    Nope. Your SSD will be fine, just don't run these benchmarks every hour.
