Question Horrible crashing seems because of ssd but I'm not so sure

[lone_wolf32]

Hello

I've had some horrible crashing lately and I've had to format my system several times
The one major symptom when it happens is the ssd goes up to 100% use and doesn't come down even though I close all programs
That is followed by bsod and when I start again windows has to do drive repair or its too corrupted and I have to format
I have a 500g Samsung 850 about 2 years old and a 2T WD as well
But I've run several disk programs to check the health of my ssd and all show good results
98% health... HD tune could only find one bad sector
Otherwise the system seems more sluggish than usual
So is it the ssd or something else? I was itching to get another ssd but I'm afraid I'll get it wrong and the problem will persist
Please help!

it sounds a lot like a faulty SSD. Get another SSD and test again.
Do they have a return policy where you plan to purchase your new SSD from?

Is there a friend that can temporarily loan you an SSD to test with?

Also, test with Windows installed on the hard drive only, with the SSD completely unplugged from the system. Do you still get BSOD?

. . . . . is the ssd goes up to 100% use and doesn't come down even though I close all programs . . .

This info seems some misleading to me, if that is not a typo then the system just get stucked because the storage is full.

Meaning active time in task manager not space occupied

None... the activity of all the processes didnt add up and when i closed all the processes i could the drive would still stay throttled
