- Is it possible to somehow log write to device events as a file entry?
Since many devices have a Write indicator, some way of probing that indicator to increment a counter, then some estimation of drive wear would be captured as a human readable numerical.
Doing so would seem to double the number of write-to-device events. How about a way to query the device for how many such events had occurred. We could set up a protocol. Call it "Systematic Tracking Using Performance Indication Data". Yeah, that should work.
