Hasn't someone from OCZ stated exactly that in this very thread? And Tony also stated it multiple times in his very informative thread on the topic over at the OCZ forum. I was very surprised and frankly disappointed that ao1 was not able to reset his drive with a secure erase. I was thinking that I could avoid any life throttling by just imaging my drive and secure erasing it every few days.
I'm not much of a gambler, but with people expecting a petabyte of writes from these puppies it makes me think we should be placing bets. Anything more than 6000 p/e c. from a 25nm drive or 10,000 p/e c. from a 34nm would surprise me greatly. Although I suppose it is possible that the wizards at Intel have some kind of magic up their sleeves. They've got a lot of big brains over there.
