eMMC failure?

Got a cheap acer switch one 10 and during the 3 hours of updates it started just randomly restarting. Thinking it was an issue with the OS (windows always messing up when running lots of updates) I decided to just rip a fresh copy to a Flashdrive and install from there. 

Reformatted the 32GB drive, tried installing it and it only gets to 28% each time before the computer just restarts. I took it apart and repasted it, left it half open to make sure it wasn't getting hot and it's not. Battery is 100% charged and happens with the battery plugged in or not, charger plugged in or not. Guessing the emmc is failing?

Is there a USB based tool I can use to test the emmc memory? I just ripped a copy of Knoppix to a USB for now since it runs purely from RAM, working fine for now.
