In the second year, the SSD-drive experiment began to show signs of memory damage.
The study conducted by an independent HTWINGNUT blogger showed that Solid -State Drive (SSD) could lose data if you left it without power for a long time, Tom’s hardware reports.
In a series of YouTube blogger trials Htwingnut, who evaluated SSD’s reliability for the second year in the past, a significant decrease in productivity and data loss in carriers left without power was expressed. He tested four SATA SSD-Disk Leven JS-600 with a capacity of 128 GB with TLC memory and stated endurance of 60 TB of record.

Two new and two “tired” drives participated in the trials. New discs are practically unused, and have missed their nominal endurance more than four times – 280 TB of data has been recorded with them.
In the first year of the experiment, no data problems were discovered. However, the results of the second year testified negative changes. One of the “fresh” discs after two years of downtime, though it was reviewed by the hash-summ of all files, but showed more than 400 ECC errors (hardware correction of errors), which is a sign of memory damage.
The results for “tired” SSD became more concerned: data check lasted four times more time (42 minutes instead of 10), four files were damaged, the number of wrong sectors increased (from 0 to 12), and the unstable drive speed was observed.
Although the test sample is small, the results indicate the need to regularly check backups, even if the SSD-disk is not used. In some cases, as mentioned with -set, data loss may occur after six months of drive the drive without power.
Reminding, earlier reported that Chinese scientists have shown the fastest media in the world of flash memory.
