What is SSD Lifetime remaining?
Answer
The SSD Lifetime remaining percent is computed from the SMART information from the drive itself. For SATA/SAS/SSDs there is usually an attribute that directly correlates to the percent. For NVMe drives, we use the 'Available Spare' attribute, combined with the 'Available Spare Remaining'. For drives where the available spare remaining is less than the available spare threshold, we also fail the drive.
