Is the TBW of the SK BC511 known?

I am in a weird spot with upgrades for a few people - someone has a Dell with the i5-9400/12GB/256GB+1TB but I have someone with a Ryzen 5 2400G HP desktop which cannot run Windows 11 -- owner decided against the bypass, but that means I only have 11 months to figure this out :-(. I've "shopped around" with family who owns older PCs who have had them for a few years. One has come up as I suspect they will take an upgrade being they've had it for years (i5-9400). Still a good CPU, but it's older.

The issue is this person crams the SSD and this machine is 256GB+1TB so the SSD took a beating even with 12GB of RAM. It's taken a bit more of a beating then some of the drives I have seen which hover at 2-3%. Is the TBW of this drive known so I can judge how critical an SSD swap will be?

Sorry other than the drive maker disclosing it, it's not the best means to gauge a drives lifespan.

Here's a good write up SSD Endurance Specs: Why the Numbers Do Not Tell the Whole Story

I personally find 256GB SSD's too small for most people today in their Computers, no matter the OS. While it will work, between game play and web surfing it won't last long!

Yeah this computer is 6 years old at least. 512+ was expensive then.

Yeah the SSD nor PC survived. The SSD was running slow and the motherboard died so I had to get the data off. Kept crashing so I cloned it to a 500GB SSD so I can do a straight copy and leave the old drive as is in case. It did sustain small reads but not large sustained ones.

Accepting this to close the question but yeah. That machine is done.
