SSD's wear out based on writes per block. they distribute those writes, but once each block has been written X number of times, they are no longer reliable. they appear to still be working perfectly, but they are beyond their design life. soon or later, if you continue the amount of writes you've been doing, you'll get back errors or bad data. I would plan on replacing those drives sooner rather than later. 5 years was a good run. -- john r pierce, recycling bits in santa cruz
