I have one that's been doing that for a year or more now. Hasn't
failed yet, but it's not in regular use.

I recommend manually running Trim on it.

https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/bionic/man8/fstrim.8.html

I just do this after every update:

sudo fstrim / -v
sudo fstrim /home -v

(The laptop has 2 SSDs and dual-boots with Win10. Root and home are on
different physical drives.)
