Hello, Today I was helping a poor luser who's Crucial P1 QLC SSD died from too many writes. We still don't know what's doing the writing, but he is running luks using FDE so write amplification is definitely a factor. I forget the answer to this so please enlighten me, is there a streaming cypher he can use instead of a block cipher? A better option that I didn't consider? Not that the TCG Opal is to be fully trusted (nor is it available on that model), but how does it work with respect to write amplification vs. luks?
