Interesting! I sometimes work with SSDs as storage media for cameras (where Sandisk is the most popular brand by a mile) and I seriously doubt any camera firmware is doing drive maintenance. From what I know of digital imaging technicians, neither are they - if a drive starts acting up in any way, the usual policy is to just take it out of service immediately, recover anything that was on it, dump it, and buy a replacement.
