So I'm always looking up SSD endurance ratings before purchase.
Should I really even bother? I'm cleaning up my desktop (840EVO) and thought I should check the writes.
I'm at a whopping 7.18Tb Writes, seems like a good amount for a little consumer 250GB model... but supposedly they are good for nearly a PB!?!
Now when I upgrade mechanical drives to SSD I'll typically use 250GB Trion100s or 850Pros
The Trion is a budget drive rated at 55GB/D or 60TB total.
The Samsung is rated 1.5x the daily and 2.5x the total writes.
suddenly my 840's 7TB seems to be nothing. (this model rated at 70TB total)
Then I ran some performance tests.
How have you seen total writes impact performance? of course a new SSD and fresh install of your OS will be amazing, but at 3 or 4 years old install with 7 TB writes It's fast, but not "FAST!"
Do you think it;s worth looking at endurance on modern SSD's (for consumers/basic workstations)
What are your thoughts on writes/performance?
What is your SSD's Total writes? how does it feel Vs new?
