We bought 1347 Used Data Center SSDs to See SSD Endurance

We bought 1347 used data center SSDs to see just how much SSD endurance people are using, and how it is changing over time. The result is we may need to re-think the DWPD metric.

We have been collecting the data for years, but this video came about at a discussion with Solidigm. That is why we are saying this is sponsored by Solidigm and are showing their drives. Of course, most of the actual data collection happened well before Solidigm was even a company. It is, however, valuable to be able to get some vendor insights as well.
