Kynyo Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 I have a Samsung 840 Pro 128GB SSD. A look with DriveDX gives me 99.0% @ SSD Lifetime Indicator Now I'm wondering if that it's a bug or a really warning! Any help is appreciated.

iFIRE Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 like I understand, this indicate that you have utilized 1% of life time of your disk, then you have 99% again of life time 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kynyo Posted July 8, 2014 Author Share Posted July 8, 2014 After five months it drops from 99% to 98% lifetime.What can I do? If i Shrink disk (for OP) it will be OK? I guess it will be around 15GB just for OP. I wrote around 2.8TB till now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GokieKS Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 NAND in SSDs are rated for a certain number of program/erase cycles, which basically means each block of NAND can only be written to so many times before they wear out. What you are seeing is normal wear on a SSD. The only way for you to not have that number drop is to not write to the SSD. The short story: don't worry about it. In almost all consumer usage models, the NAND in a SSD will last longer than the SSD will remain useful (due to size, performance, etc). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Picasso Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Hi, anyone has a solution to enable TRIM in 10.9.4? I know that is the most important factor for the life of the SSD - I lost a Vertex 4 for not enable this. I was reading the command line as I paste below has some problem: TRIM enabled by using the following commands. sudo cp /System/Library/Extensions/IOAHCIFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/IOAHCIBlockStorage.kext/Contents/MacOS/IOAHCIBlockStorage /IOAHCIBlockStorage.originalPatch the file to enable TRIM support:sudo perl -pi -e ‘s|(\x52\x6F\x74\x61\x74\x69\x6F\x6E\x61\x6C\x00). {9}(\x00\x51)|$1\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x 00$2|sg’ /System/Library/Extensions/IOAHCIFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/IOAHCIBlockStorage.kext/Contents/MacOS/IOAHCIBlockStorage Most people recommend a soft called TRIM ENABLE, but it's not free. Any recommendation? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
