I have a laptop with a SSD as a hard drive. The problem is that I have already installed a new operating system several times (on the one hand to try different Linux distributions, on the other hand because I have destroyed my operating system several times (I'm relatively curious and sometimes try terminal commands, etc.)). I know that although SSDs have certain advantages over HDDs (speed, volume, etc.), they 'wear' them when much is written on them.
Now for my real question: Is there a way to see how much 'capacity' the SSD still has (for example any software)?

Even an HDD wears when used. It is true that the write cycles under normal circumstances are technically more limited in an SSD, but this was only an issue for the first generation.
An average SSD should remain faithful to you for years without restriction, even if you write the system completely new every week.
Thanks
But this was only an issue for the first generation.
Had I known that, I would not have thought so.
This is synonymous for Linux, but under Win I always use CrystalDiskInfo. Every other SMART program does it too.
Nevertheless, one can simply read the state of the SSD. This does not hurt and possibly prevents data loss.
Let's see, thanks
