I bought a crucial bx500 and the written bytes value increase by 200gb every day of usage! Is that normal ? If not what should i do ? After about 16 day of usage the written bytes are about 4tb .

You mean, I think, that everyday the capacity of the SSD is being reduced by 200GB - is that correct?

If the capacity is decreasing, then no - that would not be normal.

What is your computer used for?

Look in Task Manager (Startup tab) and look for some program that may be being launched at startup.

It could be doing some sort of daily backups that are, in turn, just being saved to the SSD.

However, please feel free to correct or modify my understranding of the problem.
