Windows XP SSD

Hi, I'm thinking of building a gaming PC and my friend has a copy of Windows XP he said I can use to save 100 bucks. I want to put an SSD in my PC but from what I've heard, having an SSD with XP can cause the SSD to fail very quickly. Can anyone back this up? Or am I good to go?

Simply put... Windows 7 (Srsly its worth the $100)

*cough cough* piratebay *cough cough*

Seriously just torrent the OS if you're low on funds or just don't want to spend the 92 bucks on Windows 7.

Oh also, XP won't utilize TRIM.
