Good Morning All,
Well for the second time in a month I come home and my PC has hardware issues
It's had a good run since I ordered in 2011 now (Spec in sig)
My first issue was the Coolit AIO waterblock stopped working so I ordered a replacement H55 after a quick phone call to PCs and sorted that.
Last night I came home and the machine would freeze up every minute, the cursor would continue to work but everything else would stop responding. After about 30seconds it would all spring into life again for another minute. I painstakingly tried to check obvious, checked SMART status on all drives showing no issues. I finally went into event viewer and it has littered with "Event ID 129 – storachi – Reset to device, DeviceRaidPort0, was issued." and another error relating to disk0 (Forget what it was now)
After checking Disk Management disk0 was definatly my newish SanDisk SSD that the OS was installed on.
So....
After about an hour I managed to get Windows media creation tool to put a new copy on W10 on a USB stick. Restarted the machine, dumped both SSD drives and created new partitions for my old Intel SSD. I proceeded to install windows on this.
Windows10 is now back up and running running the basics, I have left the SanDisk unallocated while I try and do some tests. I managed to get Short and Extended Smart run on the SanDisk with SanDisk SSD Dashboard Management and they passed.
I am currently running a full destructive write+read surface scan on my original WD Black mechanical using HDSentinal. This estimates another 2hours to finish which would mean 8-9hours total running. No issues so far.
My question is, is there any other testing I can do on the SSD's I am sure the SanDisk is the issue but unsure best way to test it other than smart which I have done and it passes. But since switching back to the old SSD I have had no issues at all.
