that happens even on just plain Replies, too - not just Reply-All?
that's weird because the list munges the From: address, so a reply should go to the list.
Yep. Reply and Reply-All from Outlook 2016. Not sure who to blame for standards violation here...

233 is reported as Media Wearout Indicator on the drives I just checked on a BSD box, so I guess it's the same thing but with a different description for whatever reason.
233 Remaining_Lifetime_Perc 0x0000 067 067 000 Old_age Offline
i dunno if that name comes from the drive itself or from the smartctl software. that could be the difference.
smartctl. It has a vendor database concerning what each of the values are, so if the manufacturer of you drives says 233 = "Remaining Lifetime Percent", and the manufacturer of my drive says 233 = "Media Wearout Indicator", and the authors of smartmontools were aware of this, then that's what goes in the database and that's what gets reported.
I assume that means I´ve used up about 1/3rd of its expected life. Not bad, considering i've been running it for 500 days total so far:
9 Power_On_Hours 0x0000 100 100 000 Old_age Offline - 12005
12005 hours is 500 days. or 1.3 years.
I just checked the server that burned out the disks pretty quick last time (RAID1 zfs cache, so both went around the same time), and it
i suppose read performance is doubled, but there's not really any point in RAIDing L2ARC. it's transient data that gets wiped on boot anyway. better to have two l2arc cache partitions and two ZIL partitions.
and not raiding the l2arc should spread the write load over the 2 SSDs and probably increase longevity.

I've seen too many OCZ's fail within months of purchase recently, but not enough data points to draw conclusions from. Maybe a bad batch or something? They were all purchased within a month or so of each other, late last year. The failure mode was that the system just can't see the disk, except very occasionally, and then not for long enough to actually boot from.
i've read that the Toshiba-produced OCZs are pretty good now, so possibly a bad batch. or sounds like you abuse the poor things with too many writes.
Nah these particular ones were just in PC's, and were definitely not warn out (on the one occasion where I actually got one to read for a bit, the SMART values were all fine. Servers get SSD's with supercaps :)
even so, my next SSD will probably be a Samsung.
Despite initial reservations (funny how you can easily find bad reports on any brand!) I have been impressed with the performance and longevity of the Samsungs, but I still don't have enough datapoints. James
