Excessive TBW on 2 years old NVME SSD

Hi,

I built my PC in January 2022 with a Samsung 980 1TB NVMe. Yesterday, I installed Samsung Magician for the first time and was surprised by the total bytes written on it: 64 TB, which means an average of 2 TB written per month.

That seems surprisingly high. I download at most two games per month, and they are not always that large.
Nvidia Shadowplay and Steam Recording are both disabled.

Is there a known issue with this SSD model? I have never updated it.
