What exactly is Host Writes in the SSD SMART info?
I got my SSD up and running in my PC a few weeks ago. Due to a driver problem I tried to diagnose I essentially went back and forth between Vista and Win7 four times before I figured out the problem and just settled my video drivers will not work in Win7 yet.
My Host Writes is 495GB already... is that how much I've written to the SSD? I don't even know how I could have accumulated that much unless HDD Erase 3.3 counts as a lot of writing. Windows only takes up less than 20GB and at max I put 30GB of apps maybe during two of those installations. (160-190GB) That gets me worried about the longevity of my drive because I would eventually like to go back to Win7 and be able to reformat once or twice a year. (if I get major HW upgrades)
