Hi, I'm new to NVMe and from what I understand, they have a finite amount of data that can be written to them before there is a risk of failure.  I've often seen it expressed in TBW (Terabytes Written). 

 

My concern is that if I'm writing a lot of big files to the drive (it's a 2TB Toshiba KXG50PNV2T04 KIOXIA), then I could reach that failure point rather quickly. 

 

I've researched online and even emailed the manufacturer and can't seem to find this info.  I'd greatly appreciate any help!

By the way, you can get more or less and only God knows.

Thanks so much for the fast reply.  I did see the 1.5 million hour rating however I’m trying to figure out how much total data can be written to the drive. I.e., the 

Samsung 970 EVO SSD 2TB says you can write 1,200 Terabytes (TBW)

 

thanks
