Abstract

Due to shrinking process geometries and storing more bits per cell on NAND flash, the primary media in solid-state drives (SSDs), the net effect has been a reduction in endurance and data retention specifications. SSDs are still a very robust, reliable storage solution for many embedded system OEM applications. This tutorial will arm designers with tools, guidelines and metrics to accurately measure and predict SSD useable life for a wide range of application usage models
