You can query these with smartctl (if your drive db is too old, run sudo update-smart-drivedb first)
The OS running my oldest SSDs is predates update-smart-drivedb :-) The last monthly self-test listed their lifetimes as 30177 and 30520 hours respectively; I don't remember when they were rolled out. I've had no problems with them, but they're on a router so the write load is approximately zero.

I don't get that block with "smartctl -a /dev/sda" on the M.2 drive that shipped with my Acer C720, running Debian 8. Should I pass some other option?
