This is the last bit of SMART for the m.2 stick on my new rig with the OS on it, and my chroot where I do my updates. I been running this rig for a while. Thank goodness the memory seems to be OK. Anyway, you or anyone else see anything wrong here? === START OF SMART DATA SECTION === SMART overall-health self-assessment test result: PASSED SMART/Health Information (NVMe Log 0x02) Critical Warning: 0x00 Temperature: 32 Celsius Available Spare: 100% Available Spare Threshold: 10% Percentage Used: 0% Data Units Read: 4,065,300 [2.08 TB] Data Units Written: 3,820,463 [1.95 TB] Host Read Commands: 61,480,937 Host Write Commands: 31,916,826 Controller Busy Time: 1,525 Power Cycles: 119 Power On Hours: 706 Unsafe Shutdowns: 30 Media and Data Integrity Errors: 0 Error Information Log Entries: 0 Warning Comp.

Really, that is the first SSD type thing I ever used. I'm not sure what it looks like when one is having problems or went bad either. What do they show when they are having problems? If you know. Oh, I was looking at a 2.5" SSD and enclosure. I don't think I'll build one anytime soon but I may build one just to play with one day. For the data size tho, there isn't much difference price wise. The 2.5" might be a little cheaper. I suspect inside the 2.5" is the same as a m.2 stick. May even be a m.2 stick in that thing. LOL I did order me some longer type C USB cables tho. The ones that came with my m.2 stick enclosure are kinda short. I also notice that cool temp up there. The high one is only 38C. :-D Dale :-) :-)
