Yeah, but the problem is that SSD failures usually have nothing to do with flash wearing out, and more to do with catastrophic, sudden failures somewhere else (mostly the controller AFAIK) causing the drive to stop doing anything at all. I had a 840 Pro fail on me, hadn't had many writes but just stopped showing up in the BIOS one day.
