[citation][nom]Realbeast[/nom]That's the real question for me since IIRC the 34nm to 25nm shrink dropped write cycles from 5000 to 3000.[/citation]
something like that, but you have to remember, to reach end life of a 120tb drive, you have to over write the dats on it 3000 times, meaning that you would have to write 360tb of data to that drive...
and so long as you aren't using that drive as cashe for a cashe intensive operation, that drive, barring any other failure, will last you till the life of the computer.
what i want to know more than that is how much area a memory chip (the waffer, not the black caseing) takes up so i can get a somewhat accurate base cost of the tech. i want to know if they are screwing us or not and i need that infor to find out.
