Corsair Force GT 240GB dead?

Swinzon

So, I got some issues with my Corsair Force GT SSD.
I have read issues, boot issues etc etc, reinstalled Windows 5 times. (reformatted in linux)
Now that I got a another SSD up and running I want to know how many host writes the SSD can handle before it is dead. Atm Corsair SSD Toolbox says "Total Host Writes: 24.7TB)
But I can`t see anywhere how much it actually can take...
Can anyone help me out?

And please reccoment me a good freeware that let me check the SSD`s sectors. 
Thanks

It sounds like a bad drive, it should be able to survive hundreds to over a thousand terabytes of writes. http://techreport.com/review/27909/the-ssd-endurance-experiment-theyre-all-dead

For a lifetime estimation, the free version of ssd life would probably work

Should be able to get a trial run out of it I think before it nags you about paying for it.
