+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.sp
+For the NVMe device given, calculates the device TLC and SLC write amplification factor\&.
+.sp
+The <device> parameter is mandatory and may be either the NVMe character device (ex: /dev/nvme0) or block device (ex: /dev/nvme0n1)\&.
+.sp
+This will only work on WDC devices supporting this feature\&. Results for any other device are undefined\&.
+.sp
+On success it returns 0, error code otherwise\&.
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.PP
+\-o <format>, \-\-output\-format=<format>
+.RS 4
+Set the reporting format to
+\fInormal\fR, or
+\fIjson\fR\&. Only one output format can be used at a time\&. Default is normal\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-n <nsid>, \-\-namespace\-id=<nsid>
+.RS 4
+Sets the command\(cqs nsid value to the given nsid\&. Defaults to 0xffffffff if not given\&. This option may not affect anything depending on the log page, which may or may not be specific to a namespace\&.
