What are you using these drives for, if I may ask? It seems to barely be used for anything, or I'm an outlier here. Here's an example of my main drive in my desktop/work computer:

    Model: Samsung SSD 980 PRO 2TB
    Power On Hours: 6,286
    Data Written: 117,916,388 [60.3 TB]

I'm just an average developer (I think), although I do bounce around a lot between languages/projects/manage VMs and whatnot, and some languages (Rust) tend to write a lot of data to disk when compiling.

But the ratio difference seems absurd, you have ~0.0008 written per hour, while I have ~0.0096, that's a huge difference.

Here's what I ran to get the data, in case others wanna check theirs: https://gist.github.com/victorb/f120f5b9bcc1c04a4c3d0107f633...
