Is my SSD Dying

Well the last week or so loads of my applications keep crashing and closing and i get other random things happen like chrome will just freeze and wont load any more web pages for like 2 mins then work fine and when this happens i cant crtl alt del or anything only thing that works is mouse and minimize maximize buttons 

 

also on pc start up it does a check disk almost every other boot.

 

the windows 7 installed is fresh only 3 weeks old and all drivers are up to date 

 

the ssd is about 2/3 years old

Is there not some sort of software which shows you clearly the health of your SSD?  Was there not something packaged with it?  Also this issue might not be SSD related.  It could be a number of things.

... and oh gosh just noticed you had an OCZ product :o

Too many ****ing games!  Back log 4 life! :S

An SSD shouldn't die that soon, unless you're writing terabytes upon terabytes of data on a daily basis.

It must be something else. My guess is your OC.

Case Bitfenix Ghost, Mobo Asus Maximus VIII Ranger, CPU i7 6700K @4.2 Ghz cooled by Arctic cooling Freezer i30, (barely). GPU Nvidia GTX 970 Gigabyte G1 @1519Mhz core, RAM 16Gb Crucial Ballistix CL16 @2400Mhz. SSD 128GB Sandisk Ultra Plus as my OS drive. HDD's  1TB  Seagate ST31000524AS its OEM, 3TB Seagate Barracuda, 2x 500GB WDC Blue (RAID 0)

If it isn't working absolutely perfectly, according to all your assumptions, it is broken.

Hello guys!

 

you mean Cristal disk info.

This program will tel you if your drives are ok, i use it myself.

It;s free!

 

Maybe you have to update your firmware of your SSD?

Check if Windows has used trim support on your SSD, never use defrag on your SSD!

 

I hope you get it fixed :)

Im not sure what kind of SSD yours is but if its an Intel I think they have a 5 year warranty, but dont quote me on that.

Crap the mention of a warranty reminds me I still haven't RMA'ed my Mushkin Joule 1000 watt psu and it has been 3 years since it broke LOL.  It has a 5 year warranty so no worries but geeze I got to get around to doing this.  I just was fearful of how much it would cost to mail the US and never bothered to mail it off.  I think I set up RMA twice with Mushkin and stopped. :S

Too many ****ing games!  Back log 4 life! :S
