  • 1: there is, but at this point its pretty niche and scattered. Lots of its hush-hush due to like you said potential security/insurance concerns. Mostly used for cracking and getting system/diagnostics readouts and error codes, Fob cloning, etc. without forking out cash to do so through the so called “proper channels”.

    2: not that I’ve seen, and from they software they do use it seems mainly in house additions.

    Though im not super into the scene, and i see it growing rapidly over the next few years seeing manufacturers keep doing some scummy shit to lock down their products.

    Edit: fat fingered post before i finished typing it out oops.

    You can track the health status of most smart enabled ssds. Can use a tool like crystal disk info

    Personally i have 2 7 year old ssds going strong without issue. Mainly used for storage and games, so the r/w rates been pretty lower on them.

    Ssds do have a total maximum write cycles to nand. Really depends on the use cases over the 5 years.
