Stay too high?

Samsung don't always make the best kit going, but their new line of SSDs seems to as good if not better than the Ms, at about half the cost!

<hand in the air> Ooh, ooh! I know, I know!

Still, nice to see they're growing rather quickly. Still a while before I upgrade my terabyte arrays though

Great and all but 

Will they fix the issue were the drive will start failing because the sectors have been written over too much? I was experimenting with replacing the drives in my company's servers, but the SSD would fail about a week into stress testing. We'll stick to standard whirly disks for now.

Alert

I though they did that with the onboard controlers and massive cache's? That combined with larger drives also reduces the issue.

Have you tryed some out under stress testing?, and if so how did they fair?
