[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1851815, member: 396914"] Not getting argumentative, but this article [url=https://www.enterprisestorageforum.com/storage-hardware/ssd-lifespan.html]SSD Lifespan: How Long Will Your SSD Work?[/url] says the average single-level cell NAND supports 50,000 to 100,000 write cycles. MLC and TLC flash is lower, but in the 3000 to 10,000 write cycle range. I know that cell writes and block writes are two different animals, but the idea that a block is unusable after only 8 write cycles just seems very, very strange. [/QUOTE]
