Question SSD read only

[Fanax]

Hi,

I have oldie Intel 120GB SSDSC2KW120H6. SSD became read only. It shows right ID in BIOS, but cannot even use DISKPART to format it in Windows, stuck on CMD. Tried Manjaros' GParted, but still cannot do anything. Any suggestions?

Can you show us the SMART data with a tool such as CrystalDiskInfo or Intel's own SSD tool kit?

SSD's sometimes become readonly when they run out of bad blocks or when they experience some kind of firmware failure.

Tried Intel Solid State Drive Tools, it just get stuck on Intel logo.
