    Mars Rover Has 'Amnesia' With Worn Out NAND Memory


    When the Opportunity was deployed, what it had inside wasn't called an SSD – just "non-volatile flash memory" (which is exactly what an SSD is anyway). Now, after a decade of service, the researchers controlling the rover have pinpointed the source of its strange behavior. Namely, some of the NAND memory has gone bust after all these write cycles.

    That's a long time for something that was supposed to last ninety days tops.

    Our ssd's should last longer if we just keep them on earth.

    I wonder if they can RMA them.
