I was moving files from my SSD to HDD and my pc froze. No mouse cursor no nothing. So I tried pushing the power button to turn it off and that wouldn’t even work. So I pressed the reset button. My computer booted into the bios as normal because when I switched my cpu and motherboard that happened but that’s been happening for a while and it working. So I just decided to exit the bios and boot into windows. When I do that it says preparing automatic repair and the spiny windows thing and it just sits there. I tried lowering ram clock speeds. Please help. I have also recently wiped my computer clean that’s why I was putting game files and stuff on my hdd. Please help!

Are you sure you were moving files and not just copying them? This might be a silly way to kill SSD

Honestly I may have been copying them. I know that after they have been copied or moved to the hdd I would delete them off the ssd. Also how would that kill an ssd?

Cut and paste + computer freeze = New and old files are corrupt.

Copy and paste + computer freeze = only new files are corrupt, original files are intact.

Ok. I’m honestly not to worried about that SSD. But now my question is how will I get my windows on a new drive? Is my windows 10 key attached to my Microsoft account?
