SSD erase state and reducing SSD wear

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I've got two recent examples of SSDs. Their pristine state from the
manufacturer shows:


Device Model:     OCZ-VERTEX3

# hexdump -C /dev/sdd
00000000  00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
|................|

1bf2976000


Device Model:     OCZ VERTEX PLUS
(OCZ VERTEX 2E)

# hexdump -C /dev/sdd
00000000 ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff
|................|
*
df99e6000



What's a good way to test what state they get erased to from a TRIM
operation?

Can btrfs detect the erase state and pad unused space in filesystem
writes with the same value so as to reduce SSD wear?

Regards,
Martin
