i am interested how much write-wear does my samsung SSD experienced 
relative to maximum allowed.

on my 500GB samsung SSD smartctl says

All seems fine but i'm not sure if i correctly understand VALUE, WORST, 
THRESH data for Total_LBAs_Written

50TB was written, so it's 100 times capacity. taking some write 
amplification in account (i use geli so no in drive compression have 
effect) it would be probably like 150-200.

Value is 99. It was 100 when i bought it.

Does it mean that in is 1% worn and can take 100 times more writes until 
it fails? or i am too optimistic?
