I've read an article where a number of SSDs were tested to the point of failure. Every single one of them went well beyond the stated endurance ratings, some of them going multiple times the TBW rating.
However, I wonder if the manufacturers set their TBW ratings under worst case scenarios such as under very elevated temperatures.
Naturally, you would expect the drive to last beyond the rated TBW rating since that is the absolutely minimum expected life that the manufacturer is willing to guarantee.
