Gaudi nodes have no accelerator-specific storage behavior, so this follows the standard fleet-wide process:

• Weekly: smartctl SMART health check on each node's local NVMe scratch/cache drive.
• Alert thresholds: any media errors, drive life used over 80%, or more than 10 unsafe shutdowns in a month.
• Replacement: a drive crossing the 80%-life-used mark is scheduled for replacement at the next maintenance window — drained, hot-swapped where the chassis supports it, filesystem-checked, then returned to service.
