SSD Stuttering

Hey Guys,

I recently had troubles with a dying storage drive, i decided to get a new ssd as the drive had nothing valuable on it.

I got an OCZ arc 100 and speeds are fine but every once in a while it freezes and programs dont respond...

Any ideas (The drive is brand new)

 

Thanks

OCZ usually has a SSD Management Tool that will check for Trim and Firmware updates. I bought an AMD R7 SSD and it ran pretty well, but I used the OCZ tool (the AMD drives are made with OCZ) and after a firmware updated it performed even better. Just something to look into.
