So this SSD has used 57% of its rewrite life-span, is it correct? Vendor Specific SMART Attributes with Thresholds: SMART Attributes Data Structure revision number: 1 Smartctl 6.2 r3812 (local build)Ĭopyright (C) 2002-13, Bruce Allen, Christian Franke, = START OF READ SMART DATA SECTION =

However there is only one Unknown_Attribute whose RAW VALUE is between 1 and 100, thus I can only assume that is what we are looking for: $ sudo smartctl -A /dev/sda With the first SSD, it is not clear which field indicates wearout level. To demonstrate the problem here are the two examples. I could go on to find a third SSD, but I feel the fields are not standardized. information for a percentage field called Media_Wearout_Indicator, or other jargons indicators like Longterm Data Endurance - which don't exist - Yes I did check two SSDs, both lack these fields. Most Google search results would ask you to look up S.M.A.R.T.

How do I check in Linux what the current health status of an SSD is? We all know that SSDs have a limited predetermined life span.
