Hello fellow tech people who probably know a lot more about drives than me.

It worked fine until today when it randomly disconnected and showed up in BIOS as 1GB...

This happened to me now the second time in ~12 months:
It starts with frequent bluescreens in Windows, getting more and more frequent, always requiring a reboot.
Then finally it says no OS on Disk. When I check with security USB-Stick I can see the SSD but it´s read only.

About a year ago I purchased a new pc but back then I thought trimming an SSD was bad so I turned auto trimming off in windows.
I just recently learned that a SSD trim is actually good for the SSD. When I look at diskpart it says that my drive has 99% health status. But I am
wondering if my...
I upgraded my laptop from an HDD to an SSD awhile ago but every now any then (more recently lately) the SSD just suddenly spikes to 100% usage and every application I'm on including the OS itself just seems to hang or freeze for a minute. The CPU isn't even being maxed out during these freezes...
