SSD Write Endurance 25nm Vs 34nm

[alpha754293]

I'll see what I can do about that summary.
PM/email me what you'd like to have in that summary.

Yeah, I don't think most people are actually getting how much data is written.
I've got one Kingston thats been running for more than 10,000 hours and its still short of 1TB Host Writes. (running as a boot drive on a server, not much happening but still it's running 24/7)
I'll check the two other 40GB drives I've got (both Intels), they are both used as boot drives as well but not running 24/7.

I'm pretty sure that 10-20TB Host Writes is what most of these drives will ever see during their normal life-span (2-3 years), unless they are used in non-standard environments.

I had a Fusion-io ioXtreme that had 307.8 TB writes. DOM was Jan 4 2010. And I posted it in Nov 9 2010.

My current SSDs that I'm testing (Vertex 3 240 GB and RevoDrive 3 240 GB) are at about 1.4 TB write already and I've only had it for 5 days, so I'm at about 300 GB/day (at least for the RevoDrive 3). If I didn't have unexpected power losses, I'm sure that it would be higher by now.

So....14 TB of data is NOTHING to me.

*edit*
a) The Fusion-io ioXtreme was only 80 GB. And b) I think it was on a PCIe x4 connector (same as my RevoDrive 3 now).
