[硬件知識]OP(Over-provisioning)預留空間
While solid-state drives (SSDs) are often similar to mechanical Hard Disk Drives (HDDs) in physical dimensions (e.g., height, width and length) and external interface (e.g., SATA or SAS interface), the internal low level operation and components of an SSD differ vastly from the spinning magnetic platter design of an HDD.
After an SSD is assembled, the SSD manufacturer can reserve an additional percentage of the total drive capacity for Over-Provisioning (OP) during firmware programming. Over-provisioning improves performance and often increases the endurance of the SSD, helping the drive last longer due to the SSD Controller having more Flash NAND storage available to alleviate NAND Flash wear over its useful life.
To calculate the over-provisioned (OP) percentage of an SSD, the formula in Figure 1 can be used.
Percentage Over-provisioning = |
Physical Capacity - User Capacity User Capacity |

It is common to see 7 percent overprovisioning present in many SSDs. See Figure 2 for a breakdown of physical capacity present in an SSD versus available user capacity after overprovisioning.
