[SOLVED] SSD Health

[coolraveen]

Hi i have three storage as follows,

1 Seagate 1TB 7200 RPM
2 WD green M.2 120GB 2280
3 Crucial BX 500 240GB

Crystal info says my seagate and Crucial health is good and 100 percent,

But the WD green M.2 is still good but rated at 71 percent, what does that mean? its been 2 years since i assembled this PC,
My windows is installed in that M.2 and the M.2 temps are usually bit high as its sandwiched between the tower cooler and the GPU at close.

So what is the life expectancy of the M.2 at 71 percent?

First off, how is your current backup situation?

Please show us a screencap of the CrystalDiskInfo screen.

And regarding that Backup, my windows is installed in that M.2

There is no direct correlation between "70%" and "This many days/weeks/years of life left"

Keep good backups.
Use it until it dies.
Replace it when it does. (with something other than a WD Green)

Does that M.2 have a heat spreader over it on your motherboard?

That said I'd go ahead and make sure all your stuff is backed up because you're about to get a failure.

There is no heat spreader
