Flash Product Lifespan Predictions You Should Know (3)
"Lifetime Monitoring (LTM) Tool" accurately captures the remaining lifespan of storage and signs of errors.
Easily check the remaining lifespan and replacement timing of SSDs and memory cards, as well as signs of errors, on the operating system. This helps avoid unexpected system shutdowns and data loss.
= Lifespan Diagnosis and Lifespan Prediction = To maintain high performance and data retention capabilities, as well as stable operation during long periods of continuous use, we recommend products optimized for the application, installation environment, and write/read/erase cycles of the system by combining appropriate functions and advanced technologies. Lifespan measures for NAND flash-based storage involve various technologies and functions aimed at maximizing storage lifespan optimization, such as reducing WAF through page-based FTL technology, decreasing the number of block erasures by implementing cache DRAM and garbage collection, and using over-provisioning techniques to increase durability and performance by expanding spare areas. However, accurately understanding the lifespan of storage in practice is very difficult, for example, estimating lifespan or predicting lifespan-related changes from the software access profile on the system (host) side. At Swissbit, the "firmware" and "lifespan diagnosis tool" enable easy visualization of WAF and realistic lifespan predictions, allowing for timely and reliable decisions based on the remaining lifespan of the installed storage and signs of errors, thus preventing unexpected operational downtime and data loss.
