Very good, Bill. Now just enjoy it. Benchmarks are for bragging rites and occasionally to make sure there is nothing wrong. Actually using and enjoying the performance gains quickness of it are for fun. nice scores anyway.
Are these numbers appropriate for this drive on a 6 Gig/s SATA 3 connection?

The SSD Endurance Experiment: Two freaking petabytes
SourceMore than a year ago, we drafted six SSDs for a suicide mission. We were curious about how many writes they could survive before burning out. We also wanted to track how each one's performance characteristics and health statistics changed as the writes accumulated. And, somewhat morbidly, we wanted to watch what happened when the drives finally expired.
Our SSD Endurance Experiment has left four casualties in its wake so far. Representatives from the Corsair Neutron Series GTX, Intel 335 Series, Kingston HyperX 3K, and Samsung 840 Series all perished to satisfy our curiosity. Each one absorbed far more damage than its official endurance specification promised—and far more than the vast majority of users are likely to inflict.
The last victim fell at 1.2PB, which is barely a speck in the rear-view mirror for our remaining subjects. The 840 Pro and a second HyperX 3K have now reached two freaking petabytes of writes. To put that figure into perspective, the SSDs in my main desktop have logged less than two terabytes of writes over the past couple years. At this rate, it'll take me a thousand years to reach that total.
So, yeah. Pretty insane. It's time for another check-up.
