Most of the BSODs are caused by Renesas USB3 Drivers.

You need to update it. Unfortunately I dont know a better source than Station drivers. If you know any better source, you can explore it there.

Stop 0xF4 BSODs are there, too.

Test the HDD using Seatools. Take both the short test and the long test.

​

Also get rid of intel rapid storage. First uninstall it from Control Panel > Programs and Features. Then Uninstall the driver from device manager.

1. Right click on "my computer" icon and click "manage" on the context menu.
2. It will open the "computer management" window.
3. Select "Device Manager" in the left pane, It will list all the existing devices up.
4. Expand "IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers" by clicking on the triangle in front of it.
5. Select one Intel device item under it, right click, uninstall.
6. Continue the process for all Intel items under "IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers"
7. Now restart the computer. At restart, windows will auto configure the appropriate native system driver.

Let us know the result.

when running the Seatools tests I received a FAIL error on both the short and long ones.

Try Seatools for DOS, Option Two of http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/313457-seatools-dos-windows-how-use.html

It will attempt to recover the HDD as far as it can.

If it is recovered, good for the time being. But plan to have a different one, and back up all your dear data.

But if it fails to recover the HDD, get a new one as soon as possible.
