Hi All,
Read a lot through these posts and figured i'd make my own. I have my troubleshooting steps and 2 mini dumps that ive been able to get in the thread below if this is allowed.

I've been dealing with BSODs for awhile now. They are usually CRITICAL PROCESS DIED, but sometimes change to unexpected store exception among others. It usually appears, stays at 0% and flashes the BSOD for maybe a second then restarts the computer.
Lenovo Legion Y520-15IKBM with Nvidia 1060.
Bios Version 5XCN26WW
SSD is a Crucial, CTT500P1SSD8
I've wiped and reinstalled windows which did not help. I did follow another post where someone opened and dusted the laptop which solved it. I did this, and it actually worked for about 2-3 weeks then started again. I want to say its a hardware or SSD issue.
I did check and notice 2 DMP files which i will link below. BIOS is up to date as well.

Windows Memory Diagnostic tool ran on the full/deep scan and hung at 21% for hours. Memtest86 ran 4 passes and had 0 errors.
I've noticed BSODs really random, sometimes opening Chrome, sometimes opening file explorer, after a BSOD restart i get to the login screen and dont click a thing then it BSODs again out of nowhere, just idling, etc. Ive had a few instances of gaming for hours on COD and i notice i get less BSODs for some reason. Normal windows usage in browser/file explorer or idle seem to cause this more often.
At times when it BSODs, it will fail to start and blue screen asking me how i want to proceed (safe mode, uefi, backup etc.). I've already went and reinstalled windows to no luck, ran a series of sfc scan now and other commands ive found from other threads with no luck. Other times it will BSOD, restart, then my SSD does not appear but i believe this may be caused by the sudden shut down because when i power it off and power it on 100% of the time it will boot normally.
Final note, i opened it and dusted it out and it actually stopped for maybe 3-4 weeks. It has started up again, and i can't imagine 3-4 weeks would be enough time for this to occur.
Crucial storage exec also says good health, but i can't perform SMART functions or a number of other checks likely due to the age of the SSD?
Thank you so much in advance, this has been driving me absolutely nuts.
