SSD Write Endurance 25nm Vs 34nm

[Ao1]

I know there is a way to determine actual WA on a SF drive, but that it's covered under strict NDA (though surely someone has figured it out by now). It's possible that the Chonos D and F3 could have much higher WA than it would appear, and perhaps its hidden away in the Smart data for anyone who knows what they're looking for to see.

Maybe there was a good reason that the original SF drives uses 28 percent OP.

I’m inclined to agree. Compression obviously helps but something else appears to be offsetting the benefit. At a guess it is the fact that SF (unlike anyone else) do not use DRAM.
