Monitoring SSD Endurance
The lifespan of a Solid State Drive (SSD) is determined by how much data is written to it. The endurance level for an SSD is displayed as a
percentage that indicates the amount of wear life remaining. Some SSDs track and report endurance status and some do not.
A fresh drive starts with an endurance level of 100%, and the endurance level decreases as data is written to the drive. A Storage Center
triggers an alert when it determines that an SSD will reach its endurance limit within 120 days.
NOTE: For user interface reference information, click Help.
