I thought so too, but I've got two Intel 320s (I suppose, the report device model is "SSDSA2CT040G3") in a RAID 1 configuration, and after about a month of testing, one is down to 89 on the media wearout indicator, and the other is still at 96. Both devices are deteriorating, but one at a significantly faster rate. -- Florian Weimer <fwei...@bfk.de> BFK edv-consulting GmbH http://www.bfk.de/ Kriegsstraße 100 tel: +49-721-96201-1 D-76133 Karlsruhe fax: +49-721-96201-99 -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance
