my boot drive is a samsung 960 evo 250gb m.2 nvme drive. amazon states it was released on october 6th 2016. i apparently ordered mined on october 27th 2016. i have been using samsung magician for a while and the drive health had always shown blue/purple. and had read good. it seemed a bit slower today when i checked it, it says fair, but the color is like a yellow/orange. it shows 88.2 tb written.
should i be concerned?
some history:
i originally bought it for a alienware 17r4 laptop (biggest piece of <Mod Edit> junk i have ever owned, seriously), but about 2 ish years ago i built my own desktop and transferred it over to this build. i've changed a few components since then but this m.2. has remained. previously hadnt been a huge pc gamer, but have played more in last year or so. started doing more editing for my dash cams too.
you can see my current setup in my signature.
