We Bought 1,347 Used Data Center SSDs to Look at SSD Endurance
Endurance is certainly an important metric, but when the quantity of NAND increases on a device, the current DWPD regime feels wrong. Large drives are unlikely to be subjects of consistent 4K random writes. More reads and more sequential writes are more likely. With 122.88TB drives, data being stored is being transitioned from hard drive array alternatives which offer lower performance and lower duty cycles.
