RIP my nigga

Still working just fine. I'm running it until it can't anymore. I'm curious just how durable it is.

>>106009496
Did the same shit with my car, died in the middle of the interstate and I had to walk home

>>106009508
That's not an issue now since you can just call an uber.

IT CANNY TAKE IT CAPTAIN!!

>>106009524
Yeah but people should walk more, the world is getting fatter because they ain't walking quite so much.

>>106009378 (OP)
thats way too hot, put a decent heatsink on it

How

>>106009496
lol my Dad has the same SSD in his system 840 PRO 256GB

He got it in like 2013 and it's still working fine

>>106010133
probably in a laptop
still that's pretty impressive to do on a pcie3 drive

>>106010149
Oh yeah you're right
I was actually going to joke about cooling the CPU with the NVMe but laptops actually do that

>>106010141
Maybe the 840 Pro drive is god-tier durability. Hope my current NVMe lasts just as long. I pretty much go with Samsung for all my drives, except the Crucial P3 drive I got for cheap.

WOO WOO WOO

Main reactor, Critical.

Containment breach imminent.

larger capacity ssd's will last longer than smaller capacity drives. for the simple fact, more space available = increased wear leveling. what kills ssd's is constant writes to the same cells. if you can spread out those writes to other cells, you reduce wear.

when manufacturers list TBW, that's for the entire drive. all cells free for writes.
>4TB nvme has 2400 TBW rating
that means, for all 4TB free, the cells can withstand 2400 TBW written, erased, written again, X amount of times. If you fill a 4TB nvme to 50%, that leaves 2TB left. You now have the TBW equivalent of 1200 TBW, effectively becoming no different if you bought a 2TB nvme and kept it at 90+ percent capacity free. but if you bought a 2TB nvme, and filled it up to 50%, its effectively now a 600 TBW drive.

Cells with data written to them, are filled, obviously, and thus cannot be written to, resulting in you cannot engage in wear leveling with them. if you want a drive to last, buy the biggest capacity drive you can afford, and don't go above 30% capacity.

also, small file writes kill drives faster than big file writes. its better to write a single, 50gb file than it is thousands of small files that equal 50gb. a single big file, will touch less cells than thousands of small files.

Hey retard, the wear leveling overhead is built in and not visible to the user. Every SSD I've seen tends to have about 10% over provisioning for wear leveling.
Look at enterprise SSDs and it's even more apparent, they all use the same amount of nand packages and the same size, but a 3DWPD SSD might be 7.68TB whereas the 10DWPD is 6.4TB (figures pulled from my ass because i can't be bothered to open up my datasheets)

>>106009378 (OP)
Why?

>>106010851
wear leveling spreads throughout the entire drive.

>>106010851
also, over provisioning is used when the drive is nearly full, ~95% usage.

>>106011050
>>106011074

>>106011085

>>106011085
>>106011095
so what i stated, stands. get the highest capacity drive you can, and don't fill it up past 50% if you care about longevity.

>>106010149
that's not a laptop you retard, there are 3 other drives besides the nvme. pcie 3 ssds do heat up alot.

>will never die
>is actually 39% dead already
bro, health status is your distance towards total TBW

Anon, that drive has almost 100k hours on it
He has gotten well over 10 years out of it

PCIe 3.0 is when M.2 drives started to get hot.
Some of the first drives that could do 3GBs+ could overheat fairly quickly if pushed. Like some of the Samaung 960s
There was just few usecases outside of artificial speed tests that could do that.

They didn't consume as much instantaneous power as some PCIe 4.0/5.0 drives so it took longer to throttle but they could.
