Samsung T7 500GB SSD 3-1/2 year / 42-month archival test complete.

[Daniel D. Teoli Jr.]

This is #4 out of #6 SSD archival tests underway. The Samsung T7 500GB SSD was formatted on 9.1.22 and 449GB of data was put on it. It has not been plugged in since 9.1.22. I checked it today, 3.1.26 and everything was fine.

Future tests will be for #5 / 56 months and #6 / 68 months.

I will also retest #4 for a 10-year test. It will test not rewriting the data over a 10-year period with just one plug in to recharge over 10 years. That test is due on 9.1.32.
