SSD Write Endurance 25nm Vs 34nm

[Hopalong X]

The 311 has nice heavy feel to it, which I wasn't expecting, and it's also a little faster too. I'm still on the fence about endurance testing it though. I was running some numbers and I think it would just take too damn long. I think it would take somewhere near 2 years, maybe not even then. Who knows? Surely it would last a little longer than the Mushkin, and that's a start.

It has more of a stainless steel top, but the same stupid 2mm spacer on it.

You could run Anvils Endurance app for say 2 days to 2 weeks in order to get some generalized data.
That info could be interesting for comparison to other Intels used here in their early usage.

My opinion that all info gathered could be useful.
The first Vertex tested gave us useful info even though throttling eliminated it from further testing.

Just a thought.

I’d agree. Based on observations to date expiry of the MWI can be projected with precision, so you only really need to know the extent of writes it takes to diminish the MWI by a couple of percenatge points to be able to establish how long the drive will last.

Sadly it looks like if you don’t want to risk losing your data you need to replace the SSD when the MWI expires. No doubt the MWI is conservative, in context to the chances of losing data once it has expired, but testing that would be extremely time consuming.
