I'll be impressed if the Samsung 470 makes it past 200TiB. I'm far from certain, but my best guess is that the write amplification of the Samsung is around 5 -- much higher than the other SSDs in the test. If the Samsung makes it to 200TiB, I guess that would be about 16,000 erase cycles on the flash.
