Sadly, even though I found that problem, I still can't copy the drive over because the old one has too many bad sectors.Today we are taking a look at the Crucial P5 1TB PCIe 3.0 NVMe SSD. so it keeps writing massive amounts of data to the disk.
I keep too many tabs open and apparently firefox like to make a session restore point every 15 seconds. Any recommendations?ĮDIT: It seems like I'm not the only one that has this problem with firefox. Yeah, I really need to set up a good backup system. Perfectly healthy drives can fail at any moment, which is why backups are important. There isn't really a good way to tell how many blue screens until the drive quits. Well it is a good thing that I listened to CDI and got a new drive. The healthy label in Computer Management/Disk Management indicates that the file system is readable and isn't really a good indicator of drive health. Could that be the culprit or is resource monitor not the thing to check my issue? I know that I could check disk usage in the windows resource monitor and that tells me that firefox is writing a ton to the disk, at a rate of roughly 500 MB per hour. Do a clean Windows install on the new drive and keep an eye on writes after each program install to identify potential culprits. How many blue screens can this thing cause before it completely gives out? I assumed they were talking about the S40G. I have gotten several blue screen in the past couple of weeks that all point towards hardware failure. Is a drive writing that much data while idle normal?ĬDI says that the health of the drive is "bad" but whenever I use a windows utility (like "computer management") they all say that the drive is healthy. Now I am switching it out for a Samsung 970 Evo Plus. In fact it has risen another 2 GB in the time that I have written this out. In the past hour it has risen 10 GB even though I have only been on Reddit that whole time. I do keep this computer on for quite a long time, CDI says that the drive has 14,978 power on hours, but even when I am not doing anything or much of anything the total write count keeps climbing. Which is about 35 TB more than the 160 TB it is rated for. Currently CrystalDiskInfo says that it has bad health status at 9% with a whopping 199,861 GB writes. It's OS drive and is an XPG Spectrix S40G (256 GB model).
I got this computer right before Christmas 2019.
