Pretty much the same for mine.

Looks pretty much identical to mine!
So, when do you plan on starting :)
edit:
there's no hurry, you've got plenty of time :)
Just did :)

You should change to 46% (I just noticed)
I wonder what MB/s it can do, you'll know a bit more tomorrow!
How much static data is there?
I'll change it.
You got mail. I posted a full update for the first post.
Got it, will update asap.
(most likely tomorrow morning)
That is shiny!
I like shiny things.
Todays update:

Since the G1 has passed 600TiB I'll give it a 24h retention test.

Not good.
^^ 01, CA and CB are staying pretty steady though. How did the last one look in those areas when C5 started to climb?
@Christopher
NAND hasn't even exceeded the supposed erase cycle specification yet :(
I think it might be time to put the barefoot drives out to pasture. (my intel 520 on the other hand is still ticking away just fine, will have to post an update today ... been busy/lazy)
They looked just fine on the first one. CA and CB have been at the same counts for almost six weeks.
Maybe... it's not like people are still Barefoot crazy. I still heart them -- the VertexEX is where it's at.
-----------
It's now at 3 erase/38 read fails 9025 AVG PE count.
The 830 tossed another set of blocks too. Sadness!
It's been almost a week since your last update :)
The new generation drives are definitely the most interesting ones, a few older ones does not hurt though.

Oh dear - it has been a week, I better get back in the swing of things than.
Patriot Torqx-2 was offline for several days, but I have restarted it now. It passed the "too busy to reinstall" 2-3 day retention test. It is also running a bit slower.

For the vertex 4, all the smart values were reset after firmware upgrade. Overall speed is a lot slower. Regret doing it.
I had issues with my Vertex 4 on the shipped fw (1.3), the 1.4RC fw looks much better. (maybe not for this test though)
Had to flash off the X79 as it gave all sorts off issues, including being locked.
Flashing on a Z68 worked instantly though, it cleared most if not all attributes.
It sucks when a major f/w update gets released after you have started testing. From an endurance perspective it is hard to know what impact the f/w change might have on the end result. Then again it seems a bit pointless to test on outdated f/w.
I’ve read a few snipets recently about some significant changes to NAND structure that are on the cards to cope with smaller geometries. (3D nand). The tech is continuing to evolve rapidly, so I wouldn’t be surprised if drives continue to be outdated every 12months and remain at high price levels for a long time yet.
The Vertex Turbo is dead! And it took the endurance rig with it when it died.
That's three drive failures in three days for me. What are the chances?

Those signs looks to be a sure way of telling that it's about to self destruct.
What happened to the rig?
It just locked it up. It didn't "kill" the rig, I just had to restart.
I'm going to try d-flashing the VT. That SMART data was just taken from my main rig... It shows up in volume management as uninitialized and I get a "semaphore message timeout" when I try to initialize it. I was able to pull the most current SMART data off of it though. Perhaps a d-flash will get it back in the game.
Well, giving up is not in the spirit of this thread ;)
Some days I feel as though I'm in the Bermuda Triangle of solid state storage.
All the read and erase failures were in Bank 6 (C1). A dflash failed, so I laundered the flash. Subsequent dflashing attempts also failed.
Even if I had been successful, it would be like taking a lame racing horse and shooting it full of steroids and pain-killers and making it race once more; nothing good is going to happen, and I'll just have to shoot it in the head.
But that doesn't mean I'm going to stop trying to dflash it though, but I'll just have to wait a day or so.
Too bad about the VT....:(
What will be your next ssd?
The M3P is a very exciting canditate.
Sorry to hear the bad news.
Scroll down to the SSD's. Samsung 830 128GB $160. Of course you are already doing the 256GB aren't you? Just a thought.

There is a HyperX 120GB also.
