    What is the best way to test a SSD

    Hello,

    What is the best way to test a SSD ?
    Are there some special settings for SSD ?

    I'm using Burn In 6.0

    You can test a SSD like any other hard drive.
    But set the hard disk duty cycle to 100% and turn off all other tests.

        I have SSD MLC drives and do not want to wear them out with excessive RW tests.
        What mode can I use that maybe writes once and then read/verifies after that?
