S.M.A.R.T Power On Hours Value

[Garet Jax]

Hello all,

I am trying to decide whether or not my SSD drive is on its last legs. The SMART power on hours values are 0 0 26047. I can't understand what the 0 and the 0 means. Can anyone help me?

Thanks.

That's just telling you how long the drive has been powered on in total. That's not an indicator of pending failure.

Yeah, those attributes won't say when your SSD is about to kick the bucket.
Typically, you look at reallocated sectors, and fail count code, and so on to check on the SSD, or if it fails a SMART self-test.
