Storage Your SSD health? Post your stats here

Maybe, but it's not unwelcome!

If it makes you feel better I would send you some of my washing...

 

SSD make and model: OCZ Vertex Plus

Size: 60GB

Power on hours: 1780 hours

Drive Life Remaining: Where are you seeing this

 

same as you docodine carnt see drive life either crucial c300 128GB

 

SSD make and model: OCZ Vertex 2

Size: 120GB

Power on hours: 2606

Drive Life Remaining: 100%

 

SSD make and model: OCZ Agility 3

Size: 120GB

Power on hours: 163

Drive Life Remaining: 100%

 

Minus 19%

I assume it's accurate.

 

Sorry Bindi, going to bump you into 3rd place for power on hours!

SSD make and model: Crucial C300 (Purchased new from retail, used for Steam)
Size: 256GB
Power on hours: 7976
Drive Life Remaining:100%

SSD make and model: Crucial C300 (Refurb from Crucial, used for Win 7)
Size: 256GB
Power on hours: 1892
Drive Life Remaining:100%

Seems to be even less meaningful than the SSDLife program's data, to be honest.

 

SSD make and model: Crucial M4

Size: 128GB

Power on hours: 667

Drive Life Remaining: 100%

I will have to look up my laptop drive later.

 

Well, if you want to send me some... ...i'm getting bored of doing my own today.

 

SSD make and model: Crucial C300
Size: 60GB
Power on hours: 5,602
Drive life remaining: 98%

The drive life remaining is the same as the health figure on mine but otherwise scroll down the list at the bottom and it'll show it as a separate line.

 

surprising how many people don't RAID these then.

 

IMO performance is more than enough without RAID, and it's not worth double the price.

 

Depends what controller you're using

 

Agree. I want TRIM and am happy with the drive's performance.

 

SSD 1 ........... 512g M4 100% health 1399 hours

SSD 2 ........... 512g M4 backup drive 100% health 718 hours

SSD 3 ........... 240g Corsair Force 100% health 1016 hours

But as people prob know, its pretty much irrelevant, as ive had rma on ssds even at 100% health, so no point going by that.

 

Judging by your sig, spending twice as much for slightly better performance is a strategy you're a fan of

 

Well, if you wanted more than a minimal amount of SSD space then it wouldn't be double the price...

...though you naturally need to buy based on your usage & disk controller - there being a trade off between low end & sequential speeds when you look at R0...

...so generally, for an OS/apps/etc drive with 6Gb/s SSD(s) on a decent (intel/amd) 6Gb/s controller, you're better off with a single 120/128GB than 2x60/64GBs (but would be better with 2x120GBs than 1x240GB SF)...

...but if you had an unusual usage (or weren't going for SFs & depending on your r-e-w cycles) then this could vary either which way.

Though, as you've bought a SF then you don't need trim...

...although only needing 120GB then you've almost certainly made the better choice by going for the single 120GB...

I hope you and the other M4 owners have the 0309 firmware

 

Even though im prob still 10 years off needing the 039 firmware update, i actually did it today.

I took a gambe, i normally replug them into sata 2 ports on ide mode.

But i decided to go into CBA mode, i updated them in ahci and on a sata 6g connector.

Youl be happy to know it updated just fine.

If this helps other users, im using a gigabyte ud9 on its sata 6g marvel controller.
