Self-Monitoring Analysis And Reporting Technology
The Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology (SMART) feature-set minimizes unscheduled system downtimes
by providing a method of early detection of device degradation or fault. By monitoring and storing critical performance
and calibration parameters, the SMART feature-set attempts to predict degradation or fault conditions. The knowledge
of a negative reliability condition allows the host system to warn you of an impending risk of device failure and advise on
appropriate action.
NOTE: The Dell OpenManage Server Administrator must be installed and running for SMART reporting.
Device Life Remaining
NAND SSDs have a finite number of program and erase cycles. Due to this, the Dell PowerEdge Express Flash PCIe SSD
is warranted to a maximum amount of data written to the device in total bytes written. The Dell PowerEdge Express
Flash PCIe SSD self monitors for these limits and Dell software management applications notify you when these limits
are reached.
NOTE: The Dell PowerEdge Express Flash PCIe SSD warranty expires when it reaches the threshold of total bytes
written.
NOTE: If you continue to write to the device after it reaches the threshold of total bytes written, the amount of time
the Dell PowerEdge Express Flash PCIe SSD retains data while powered off decreases below device
specifications. For more information see,
PCIe SSD Technical Specifications
.
Device Write Status
NAND SSDs have a finite number of spare sectors and if the device exhausts the available spare sectors, the Dell
PowerEdge Express Flash PCIe SSD enters the Write Protect mode (Read-Only). In the Write Protect mode, you can only
perform read operations to the device. The Dell PowerEdge Express Flash PCIe SSD monitors for these limits and Dell
software management applications notify you when these limits are reached.
