I will test it more thoroughly in the evening or tomorrow morning. The
whole SSD has 120 GB, but I only use a 100 GB partition to be able to
better compare it with my hard drive. The scan always scans the whole
partition, because you cannot predict where the latest segment will be.

It is a pretty worn out Samsung 840 SSD. I use it for all my tests.
