So my (quite young) uncle has a hobby, he buys old (not ancient) server parts and puts them to use in Mac Pro's etc. Today he bought 10x Micron C400 2.5 SSDs (250 GB) for quite a cheap price. Ofcourse they've been through the server life, but it's still nice to use them in a desktop.
My point is, what would you give for this? and would you use this to store important data?

MTBF is 1.2 million hours, they seem fine.

>Percent Lifetime Used
>This value gives the threshold inverted value of the data value below. That is, if 30% of the lifetime has been used, this value will report 70%. A value of 0% indicates that 100% of the expected lifetime has been used.
The first SSDs has 98, that is, only 2% of the lifetime was used up.
Compare also the time: 25088 hours vs. 1.2 million hours is around 2%.
Check the SMART parameters, and if they are all okay, then the SSD can be used somewhat safely.

Nice, I figured something like this would be the result. I wonder why the SSDs were done away though. They have stickers on them saying "SPARES NO. xxxx"
He paid 300 for 10 SSDs.

300€ that is.
