Maybe we should put up something like this:
There are rumors going around that the Denuvo anti-tamper technology on Dragon Age: Inquisition and Lords of the Fallen is responsible for performing a massive amount of writes to hard disk, and therefore eroding the life of SSDs.
We think this is highly unlikely.
In the first place, this stems only from a post on a Russian forum. Someone has examined the IO activity of the LoF.exe, and claims that it is making hundreds of thousands of write operations to disk, in the order of tens of gigabytes. No credible source exists to support this.
Very possibly, someone has misunderstood what a complex system monitoring app has shown them - perhaps confusing memory activity for disk writes.
Games rarely write very much data to disk, and it would be pointless for the encryption technology to write to disk in this way.
From the Denuvo website:
"Does Denuvo Anti-Tamper constantly encrypt and decrypt data on storage media?"
No, Denuvo Anti-Tamper does not continuously encrypt and decrypt any data on storage media. To do so would be of no benefit in terms of security or performance.
"Does Denuvo Anti-Tamper affect my SSD or any other type of hard drives in any way?"
No. As mentioned before, Denuvo Anti-Tamper does not constantly read or write any data to storage media."

Unless credible evidence emerges, we recommend that you treat this rumor as FUD.
EDIT: I removed double use of "no credible source" in the third paragraph. "Welcome to the Department of Redundancies Department."
