    Failing SSD ?


    Hi guys is there any way to tell if my SSD is failing? I have had so many problems recently with it I have had to re-install Windows at least 8 times as it has some how got corrupted it randomly reboots and then the memory dump fails and I try to reboot only to get the message that Windows can not repair this Argggghhhh.

    Have posted a few screen shots about the Drive which is an OCZ Vertex 128GB firmware 1.6.

    Thanks for any insight.

    Hi Steve
    Go to the website of the manufacturer of your hard drive and you can test it there.
