I like Samsung SSDs. Thats a full stop at the end of the previous sentence!

General

Smart Control

This is software for managing hard drives. It works well for Samsung SSDS

You will need to install smartctl which comes in the gsmartcontrol package. It is no longer standalone.

sudo /usr/sbin/smartctl -A /dev/sda | awk '$0~/LBAs/{ printf "TBW %.1f\n", $10 * 512 / 1024^4 }'
