Hey there,

I ordered a Sandisk x400 SSD, and after I installed it in my computer, I downloaded some tools and realized the drive already had 5TB of lifetime writes. I thought it was weird so I kept an eye on it, and it started climbing at an alarming rate. I did some google-ing and disabled search indexing, hibernation mode, etc etc etc. and it is still climbing quickly.

I have only had the drive powered on for 9 hours and have almost 9TB written.

I've check processes and disk usage, and the disk is barely being used by anything. What do I do?
