More reliable != Never fails. That said, I wonder if their reliability figures are per device or per volume of data. For example, if SSD has a 1/100 failure rate vs 3/100 for HDD, but you need 4 SSDs to store your data, rather than 1 HDD, you have a higher chance of failure with your SSDs.

The inverse of multiplication is division. To invert 100x you use x/100 or x(1/100). 1% can be written as 0.01x, 0.01 in fractional form is 1/100. So yeah, "100 times slower" is the inverse of "100 times faster", and if "100 times faster" is 100x, then "100 times slower" would be x/100, or 1%.

Your equation is accurate. Doesn't mean it's correct to say that 1 is one hundred times smaller than 100. You would say 1 is one hundredth of 100. Not saying it's not done all the time, but it shouldn't be. Pretty sure the article said this was introduced in a driver update after the product...

Not to be obnoxious, but saying A is 100x faster than B makes sense however saying that B is 100x slower than A makes no sense. If I have $1, and you have 100x more, you have $1x100=$100. If you have $100, and I have 100x fewer, I can't write that equation. The correct way to say it is that...
