That's why enterprise SSDs are rated at number of full writes per day rather than GB per day. If you are going to write at 400 MB/s for 24 hours a day then you need an enterprise SSD and not a consumer one.

So Samsung 850 PRO is not an enterprise SSD?

No, it's not: http://www.samsung.com/global/business/semiconductor/minisit...
(Also, drive writes per day and GB per day are the same metric.)
Of course an average consumer can't produce that. A lot of the data I write to any medium at home is never overwritten. But not every use is the use of an average consumer, knowing the actual limits is important.
