I have an M1 Max MBP 16 with 64GB of ram - 4 TB SSD. This laptop is almost a year old ( will be in 2 months ).
Figured I'd post my usage records just for information and to ask, are the SSD writes normal? This laptop is used all day long.
For most of the day this is how my memory utilization looks:
For 14 days of uptime this is how my disk usage looks:
10:49 up 14 days, 21:45, 2 users, load averages: 6.56 7.16 6.85:

Interesting observation - I only have 120GB of photos/videos. <shrug>. https://www.reddit.com/r/MacOS/comments/n2cjx7 Maybe this is normal.
36.64 TBs written in just under a year. Now, I'm not worried at all about this. I know cheap tiny SSDs can write hundreds of TBs (and more) before having problems. I have the 4TB SSD. Just an interesting observation. My 201 7 MBP had about 17TB written after 2.5 years.
I contacted a friend who has the SAME MBP but the 6TB SSD - and his read values were almost identical and written was around 10TB less. So maybe this is normal?

Figured I'd post for reference also if others had similar questions.
This is by far the most amazing computer I've ever used. Takes everything I throw at it and more.
