Disclosed in some examples are methods, systems, memory devices, machine readable mediums configured to intentionally degrade NAND performance when a value of a NAND health metric indicates a potential for failure to encourage users to replace or backup their devices before data loss occurs. For example, the system may track a NAND health metric and when that metric reaches a predetermined threshold or state, the system may intentionally degrade performance. This performance degradation may be more effective than a warning to effect device backup or replacement.
