Samsung 950 Pro Write issue

[DavidYpres]

Trying to deal with Samsung has been a nightmare, legit.

 

I started using this as a boot drive in August. It's got Windows, a couple of games (StarCraft and Diablo), and Firefox/Chrome which are both set to run InPrivate Browsing at all times, and uTorrent which saves to another drive.

 

So on December 22nd I was looking at Samsung Magician which said I had written 68TB to the drive. I think, this can't possibly be right so I opened up a case with them. I look today and it's written 89.91TB!? Wtf even.

 

This is the 256GB version which has a TBW of 200TB per their website. Can anyone think of any reason this would be happening? I've checked on a couple of other programs as well which both show the same amount of data written.

 

And can anyone recommend any programs which could monitor and log the disk usage/bytes written?

 

Thanks!

First thing I found when I Googled.

 

BTW your SSD is gonna quickly become slow if you don't do something about it. I would suggest reinstalling Windows and just leaving it bone stock as soon as you figure out what this problem is. Whatever it is writing to your disk is doing multiple terabytes rather rapidly.

Is your page file on the 950 PRO?

It is but I highly doubt it would write 20TB in two days.
