Samsung said new software for its latest PCIe 4.0 SSDs make them so reliable, they can essentially “never die.”
Three new software features were announced (https://news.samsung.com/global/samsung-brings-revolutionary-software-innovation-to-pcie-gen4-ssds-for-maximized-storage-performance) in total, with two tied to data integrity: a virtualization technology dubbed “V-NAND machine learning technology” to verify data, and “fail-in-place.” Officials said FIP allows an SSD continue running normally even during chip-level failures.
Fail-in-place can detect a failed or failing NAND chip, check for damaged data, and then move that data to undamaged parts of the drive. Samsung cited its 30.72TB PM1733 SSD, which contains 512 NAND chips inside. If any of those 512 chips failed, lit would continue to roll along.
