SSD and Seatools?
In your instructions it says to run SeaTools, but then it says:
Do not run SeaTools on an SSD as the results will be invalid.
My hard drive is SSD.
Should I skip running Seatools and run the others chkdsk and HD Tune?

My reply is a standard reply when testing the hard drives, skip SeaTools for SSD as it says..

Screenshots
Thanks,
I ran the tests. Here are the screenshots. Also the crucial SSD is not upgraded to the highest firmware. It looks like it is behind an iteration. I need to backup the hard drive in order to upgrade. Should I go ahead and back up the hard drive and upgrade the firmware? It will probably take me a while to make sure everything is backed up correctly. Let me know if I missed something with the tests.

Please run the chkdsk command again to see if there still are corrections that need to be made.

That looks better :)
See if you get problems again.
IMHO it shouldn't be a question necessary to ask, because I asked to do itShould I go ahead and back up the hard drive and upgrade the firmware?

Upgrade for firmware
Ok, I will go ahead and try and upgrade the firmware today.
It seems like the Blue screens have either stopped or slowed down tremendously.
The last confirmed blue screen I saw was on the 24th. There was an indication of one on the 26th, but I think I might have manually caused that shut down.
Anyway, after I upgrade the firmware and monitor a bit longer, I will mark this a solved.
Thank You!
