For a used SSD: SSD health at 99% is normal. This is only a measured countdown to warranty endurance. 

SSD health drops because the storage cells in a solid-state device wear out during each write operation, and each cell can only withstand a limited number of overwrites.

Formatting the SSD.  The SSD is fast and the HD can be used as the spare if possible. The 2 TB SSD is still very expensive so did not buy.

That day I posted in this forum. Now, the price went back up again to $60-$70. Xraydisk. Hope 2 TB SSD lower price will come out soon. Need it for 2 sets of computers. I made an error to use 2 TB HDD last time.

If you’re using NVMe SSDs, better download crystal diskinfo to check SSD health.
NVMe SSD has poor read write cycle.
