SSD 510 120 GB Host writes reset/overflow?

Last month SSD Toolbox reports more than 3 TB written on my SSD, today only 50 GB. Is this perhaps a firmware bug, counter overflow?

And there is still no firmware update to solve this problem until now.

Sorry but I don't have a solution. Just wanted to say that I noticed the same thing. My 510's are over a year old now and I was worried that the Media Wearout Indicator value in the Intel SSD Toolbax would never be accurate if the Host Writes kept resetting after 4TB.

I lost count of the number of times that I hit the 4TB limit and then reset. But I just now checked the toolbox and I finally see a change in the E9 media wearout indicator. It now shows 99% instead of the 100% under Normalized heading. So maybe that part is still functioning.

After 12TB of host writes, the Media Wearout Indicator drops to 98. Please refer to the picture.
