[ganesh623]

So i bought this new Gigabyte SSD NVMe SSD and its health is only at 73% but other vitals are fine.

I'd be highly suspicious if you were told it was new.

That screen shot says the drive has been powered on over 30,000 times for a total of 124 hours, while writing less than 1 TB.

That drive was introduced at least 3 years ago.

Where did you buy it?

It may last another 5 minutes or another 10 years, regardless of what you were told. But you can say that about any drive.

How is the performance, as far as you can tell?

A sudden drop in SSD health to 73% is concerning. Monitor the health, run diagnostic tests, and contact Gigabyte support for advice. If you're concerned, request a replacement. Early detection and replacement can prevent data loss.

Post the entire smart screen.

The ssd may be new to you but it looks like something 2nd hand.

That is not a "new" device.

You should be looking at your other drive ( D : E: F: ).
It has yellow "Caution" light in CrystalDisk Info.
