What about SSD life? Can I get one with a SSD near to death?

Modern ssds have stupid amount of write cycles. Everything else will crumble into dust before you deplete your ssd

My old 512GB 840 Pro from 2012 is sitting at 6% wear, has been through multiple builds and is now a scratch disk in my server for downloads / torrents.

My 850 Evo from 2014 is sitting at 2% wear, is now used for VM / Container image storage on my server.

These things are going to be with me for some time still.
