I thought so too, but I've got two Intel 320s (I suppose, the report
device model is "SSDSA2CT040G3") in a RAID 1 configuration, and after
about a month of testing, one is down to 89 on the media wearout
indicator, and the other is still at 96.  Both devices are
deteriorating, but one at a significantly faster rate.
