Write endurance is measured while running 100%

random 4KB (4096 bytes) writes spanning 100% of

the drive using Iometer.

JESD218 standard1 and based on JESD219 workload.

Formula for calculating disk size:

z

=

y

*

x

Where

y

= Requested minimum lifetime (with respect to wear out, [year]).

Where

x

= Data rate (GB /per year).

Where

z

= Total amount of data written data to SSD during its whole lifetime.

Step-by-Step Calculation

Step 1: Measure (preferred) or estimate data rate

y

, [GB /per year].

Step 2: Define minimum expected lifetime for SSD device

x

[year].

Step 3: Calculate total amount of data written to the SSD during its whole lifetime,

z

=

y

*

x

.

Step 4: Use table,

column 2

, the

z

value shall be less or equal to the value in the table to achieve requested lifetime.

.

Step 6. Check that the size of the selected SSD is greater than required size of the SSD, if not select the size of the

SSD that match customer requirements.
