I think a SSD may last longer if users store the swap/page virtual ram file on a hard drive, so not as much data is written on the SSD from Windows writing files to the SSD all the time.

True, but some don't like any slowness or lag in their pcs.

I think installing 16 GB or more RAM on a computer may increase the life of a SSD because more program temporary files will be written to RAM except for temporary internet files which are stored on a storage drive, so website pictures load faster the next time you view the site.

Not having to need to stress the ssd due to lack of RAM would help, most pcs do need at least 16gb these days.

I think a lot of PC games and big programs release in the future would need 16GB of RAM. I feel web browsers may need 16GB of RAM beause web browser makers are always adding feature like apps to browsers.

Very true, chrome, a popular browser these days, is a huge memory hog.

I think Edge can also use a lot of RAM.
