Default The SSD Endurance Experiment: 22TB update

Flash memory has limited write endurance. So do the SSDs based on it. How many writes can modern drives take before they expire, and what happens to them as the flash wears out? We're trying to find out by testing a selection of SSDs to failure. You can read all the nitty-gritty details about the experiment in this introductory article. Today, we're checking in on our subjects after 22TB of writes.

22TB might seem like an odd place to pause our testing, but it's a close match for the endurance specification attached to the Intel 335 Series. That drive is rated for 20GB of writes per day for three years. Do the math.
