At 5300MB/sec, it can exhaust its lifetime write limit in 31 hours? We need to start expressing write endurance as a multiple of write speed.

  Once the cache is full the sequential write speed drops to ~1200MB/sec, so your drive should survive till day 5 at least. In all seriousness though: > We need to start expressing write endurance as a multiple of write speed I can't tell if you're joking or not, but to be safe: no, we don't need to do that because there are virtually no realistic use cases where you'd continuously override data that you just stored on your persistent storage.

    >there are virtually no realistic use cases where you'd continuously override data that you just stored on your persistent storage. Rolling cache or a large number of camera feeds that you only want to keep for x duration.

    I think badly-behaved apps on the desktop can do this, or constant swap could as well. Even a poorly-configured redis could do constant writes.
