Your claim that an SSD write will fail without the OS or the user noticing is both false and idiotic. Of *course* the OS will know if a write fails - an error will be generated. And of *course* the user will be notified of the failure - an error message will be displayed on the screen. > For one thing, making a read request following a write would get the > data from the disk's RAM buffer since the data was already there. Bullshit. Prove your assertion that making a read request following a write would get the data from RAM rather than disk. (I know from prior experience with you that you won't offer a single shred of proof of this bullshit assertion; and you couldn't anyway even if you wanted to because you are once again talking out of your ass about things you know little about. So you are full of shit until that changes, which it won't.) > The OS relies on the disk providing a confirmation of the write If a write operation fails, an error is generated.

And that has been answered in spades. Your refusal to accept the answer doesn't equate to no answer being given. The fact is when a read or write fails, macOS notifies the user of the problem. >> Your fear, uncertainty, and doubt are completely unwarranted, as >> usual. > > Wanting to understand how things work is not "fear" or FUD. You're rejecting everything anyone says here that doesn't fit your idiotic and misinformed narrative.
