I don't know...
In my computer i have 4tb of solid state storage (2tb NVME + 1tb NVME + 2 500gb SATA), and then i have two 7200rpms 4tb disks for things i do not need speed (pictures, videos, etc). And they have no cell retention issues, nothing. I have instant access to any picture or video and the speed for those is perfectly sufficient.

In my work i have most computers with SSD's installed. A few of them became very slow, and those disks needed to be refreshed with an 3rd party utility to bring back to life (and speed) those cells. Those disks were working at about 10-15mb/s and sometimes even worse. After refresh, they are back at 400-500mb/s (those are SATA drives).
They have their issues too.

I have a few of WD/Hitachi DC520 disks for backups.
Those disks have continuous read/write speeds of almost 250mb/s. Very fast compared to the almost 90-100mb/s of "regular" hard disks.
I have a lot of photos, videos, etc. I have all of my information triple-backed, CRC checked every month and always of those 3 backups ,one is outside my house (in case of robbery/fire). Doing this with ssd doesnt make sense (cell retention issues, and COST).
I do not trust cloud services and i don't want to pay every month. Cold storage in HDD's for backup is the best option.

what?
I own a lot of F-lenses dating back from 1979, older, newer, G lenses, etc.. and they all work with any body nikon used.
The good think about nikon was that if the lens is F-Mount, you can use any lens on any body.
And with the Z system, you can use the adaptor and use all the F lenses too (loosing autofocus in the screwdrive ones).
