Yes, so are the hardware components.

Current machine has been running since 2014. SMART stats on the SSD shows 100,586 powered on hours which is 4,191 days.



Have you also measured TBW on your SSD?


SMART stats shows it's at 54% health remaining, all tests passed without errors.

The drive might be too old to report back TBW. It's a Crucial 256 GB SATA 3.1 SSD.

It has LBAs written which is 138292009426. The sector size is 512 bytes.

I think you can calculate TBW from that?

(138292009426 * 512) / 1000000000000 = ~70.8 TB written?


Yes, and I have 250GB Evo Samsung with similar stats, of same age and power on time.
