These SSD have been around a while now, curious to hear how many hours some have been running, and how many TV written.

My 80gb G2 around 15,000 hours and 5TB.

With how popular these drives are/were I was expecting many many more replies...

I guess everyone here has upgraded already :p:p
 
People who paid what these cost when they were new were probably more than happy to pay half that much for double the capacity a few years later.

The two I bought back in the day both got put in parents laptops, the one that went in my dad's died a few months ago, don't care enough to check my moms really.

I purchased 2 of each model but they're long gone.

I do still use the three Crucial 256GB C300s that replaced them. :)
 
I've got a few 300gb 320's that have been heavily used for ZIL's (not exactly what you asked, but shows some longevity). The one with by far the most writes isn't plugged in, but the other is doing pretty well too:

Power On Hours: 11300
Power Cycles: 4
Written: 16TB
Read: 348MB
Wear Indicator: 99% healthy

The other is probably about 5-10x as much use. They look like they should write around 1.6PB before they 'wear out'. They're using a 20GB slice for ZIL and the rest is free space.
 
x25-m 120gb
4611 hours on
6.18tb

1 reallocated sector, and 133 unsafe shutdown counts for some reason, I wonder if my pc isn't putting the drive to sleep properly or something.
 
here is mine, im fairly mindful of the "writes" that i give it...
