Did you mean 17 TB not 17 GB? 17 GB would be used up in one clean install.Age of the SSD and Power On Hours will always be different. The latter is only the hours it has actually been powered up and in use, unless it's left turned on and in use 24/7 then it should be significantly less than the physical age.
The only really significant factor as far as wear on an SSD is concerned is the Total Host Writes, which in turn gets reflected in the Wear Levelling count (endurance) that cereberus referred to.
Like Ghot I have a 500GB Samsung EVO 860. Mine had a hard life in a PC running VMs, hence nearly 17GB written and 97% wear left. Samsung's specified Total Bytes Written (TBW) for an 500GB EVO 860 is 300TBW, so plenty of life left in it yet.

BTW if 3% is used by 17 TB , that would suggest vendor endurance is nearer 600 TB. I find back calculated endurance figures for drives to be wildly different to figures quoted on web. Of course, even then real endurance is usually much higher. I reckon vendors deliberately quote lower endurance than reality simply to avoid warrant type claims.
