 Hello,  A quick check on that says this will work on other medium such as sda drives.  Is that correct?thanks,Greg

 You can get this via smart data output like smartctl under linux, or samsung's magician tool in windoze.

I've got a pair of 980 pro's I've used for a few years now doing full raid1/crypto/lvm stack atop them, still only show 2-3% usage on with this, so not sure what they screwed up so bad in the 990's.

 Michael, do you know if there is any Linux utility that can report the SSD wear levels?(I just bought a couple of 2TB Samsung 970 SSD's, and am curious if these might also be affected.)

This is pretty sad, I've been a fan of samsung since my first few generations of ssd's all died quickly from crucial/micron and adata, never really looked back with samsung's wear leveling tech.  There were firmware issues with the 980 and linux, and now this, perhaps time to move on.
