I believe it is 20GB per day for 5 years = 36.5TB
Link to Datasheet
My X25-V 40GB has 1TB after one year, by Intel's standard I'm good for 36.5 yearsMinimum useful life 5 years
The drive will have a minimum of five years of useful life under typical client workloads with up to 20 GB of host writes per day.
On the XS endurance thread the Kingston(Intel) 40GB drive is at 110TB, MWI 40%, and still going strong.
Guess mine will be good for 150+ years
Think I'm safe leaving my page file on the SSD, have since I got it. At that time many 'experts' were saying just leave it on there. Now I see why.
I have read so many posts (most of them not here) with ways of moving just about every possible write off of the SSD.
Thought it was a bit extreme at the time, but you never know until someone shows you
I think they will get tired of running the test before the drives wear out, my bet is 1+PB of writes can be reached.
This is what the other two tests that were linked made it to, after a year of heavy writes.
Interesting discussion on the OCZ v2 SF controller, they moved it to another thread as it was getting a bit long and... let's say, a debate.
