After you buy/install these, load up Samsung Magician to ensure they're authentic and then check the total TB written. Had an "open box" drive that had a total of 200 power on hours, but over 40TB written in that time, which is roughly 200GB per hour writing nonstop for over a week. My drive was likely used for chia/pharming, or maybe some prosumer workload, but that's definitely not typical of "normal" use. By comparison, my oldest SSD drive has over 8000 power on hours and barely hit 20TB written.

i guess only certain models show the hours? where can i check the hours in the software?

does chia farming really use that much data? seems like most of it would be static.

It does. If you have a 2tb SSD in writing nonstop to bigger 10-30tb hard drives, it'll quickly write those speeds no question in a very short amount of time.

Cancelled since it had only 90 days warranty and got Hynix with 5 years warranty.
