I've searched the forums on whether or not you can get smart info from these drives. The answer seems to be no. But is that only under Windows using Intel's SSD toolbox? I'm guessing it should work under Linux. If not, how the heck can one determine the health of these things?
smartctl -a /dev/nmve0 on Intel SSD OEM Dell/HP/Oracle?

You need the nvme utility (GitHub - linux-nvme/nvme-cli: NVMe management command line interface.). Example output for an Intel P3520:

So smartctl (smartmontools) doesn't work but nvme (nvme-cli) does, this is confirmed on these OEM drives?
smartmontools works here (Optane / FreeBSD):
Code:
(0:3) host:/sysprog/terry# smartctl -a /dev/nvme0

Wait a minute, but you said,
"No smart info."
In another thread.
1.6TB Intel DC P3605 (P3600) - $800
You are correct.
I learn new things, and help others by sharing. I'm not going to just keep saying "no smart info" to keep proving myself right

Note: This drive has the most reads out of any drive I've ever owned. Most P3605 OEMs are 100% new or 1-3x capacity usage (from formatting/re-formatting to sell/etc). My other one that's mirrored with this one only had 400gbw lol!
Excellent, thanks! Lot's of reads for sure.You are correct.

@mancavecomputing I'm pretty sure mine specifically is Oracle. I think all the P3600 series (p3605) I have that are OEM are Oracle.
I know I have some Intel P3700 that are Fujitsu and those (in WIN at least) myself, and others here could see 0 'info', @coolrunnings82 might have gotten more, maybe he can fill us in if that's the case
