Current situation with SSD?

Question

Solid State Drives

I remember at one time there was a problem with SSD - a very short time between failures with large numbers of read / write operations.
So, what is the situation now? Does anyone use an SSD on high RW servers? How reliable are SSDs these days?

Answer 1

Since these very planned years of operation have not yet passed, your question to the community is, in principle, naive.
Modern controllers inside the SSD "smear" the data being written across the entire memory. Permanent recording does not lead to a decrease in the resource of any one cell.
To monitor the remaining resource, there are special SMART attributes "ssd live left" (see the picture. forum.corsair.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=7309&stc=1&d=1283407396 )
In short, I think it is possible.

Answer 3

I think that you will not get a definite answer, too little time has passed to give any statistics, the percentage of marriage and breakdowns is everywhere. There are reports all over the Internet that they break, but it's hard to say what percentage of the total. Here is a relatively new article: SSD reliability lower than disks? . One of the comments talks about the third replacement, within a short period of time, but there are a lot of people for whom everything works fine on the same hub (I met comments not only on personal computers, but also on servers).

Answer 4

The situation is like with plasmas,
how many yells were that the cells burn out that the logos of television companies remain forever.
everything works fine
SSD is already on sale from 2700 rubles
Back up the data and you will be happy.

Answer 5

Well, in general, it's understandable. I was somewhat scared off by SSD just by these rumors about quick death in certain cases.

Answer 6

Some consumer-grade SSD models are already close to the petabyte of overwrites.
Few?
