Drives keep dying

[vladonizer]

I was having some problems with the operating system on my PC. Couldn't figure out what was happening and even after taking it to a PC repair shop I kept having problems. So I decided to get a PNY 960gb ssd for my main drive, and got a new Windows 7 operating system. the ssd died after 3 days so I got it replaced. Second one died after 3 weeks, so I returned it and got a 1TB western digital caviar blue hdd. It died as well. What could be causing all of this? the odds of getting 3 bad drives in a row is not good. Could it possibly be that the windows 7 operating system is defective? Would it help any to refund it and get a new one? I would like to know that I can put something on it that will work for along time since my brother-in-law wants to buy it since I'm planning a new build. Please help

Could be a bad power supply, bad motherboard, case not earthed correctly

Could be many things

@ShadowCaptain Nothing is a year old and worked for awhile before the original problem

 

CPU: AMD Athlon 860k Quadcore

Mobo: Asus Crossblade Ranger

CPU coller: Corsair H115i

PSU: Corsair RM 850

GPU: Nvidia 970

Case: Air 540

RAM: 16GB Crucial Tactical Tracer

It is a Corsair RM, unlikely that it could be the PSU, but there is definitely either something wrong with your system that is borking your drives, or a virus frying some of the hardware. Are you using the same back-up drive to refresh all of your files? If so, check for a virus on that drive.

@positivePXL I do not have a backup, I just reinstall the OS I bought with the first drive every time. So I don't believe it could be a virus

hmmm bad voltage input i guess..

try using an AVR, or have you tried other sata port?

might be a bad sata port.. your problem is really weird.. 

[vladonizer]

@rheyL I can try a new SATA port when I get the drive replaced, And probably get a different operating system for it. This is the error message I am getting. I can go in to the BIOS and see the drive, but when I try to boot off of it from the BIOS it froze

 

Edit: what is all the reasons this can happen?

I said that the error is caused by my Asus motherboard and windows 7, and since I wanted 10 anyways I'm just going to put 10 on it and see if it works
