VN Ren'Py Sicae [Ep 6] [NiiChan]

Never trust an HDD drive to store important stuff. Maybe it's okay for backup only or redundancy with 2 hard drives or more
An SSD on the other hand, usually when it's dying, it turns to read-only mode to preserve data (not always though)
I learnt that the hard way too

The kicker is, it was an SSD. SATA, but still...
I did some heavy workload in it, maybe that's why? I'm not a very techy guy.
I initially bought it as storage for HS2 and all other work stuff, but it got crowded. I bought NVME for the HS2 drive and kept the Unity and DAZ works in that dead drive. Did I stress it out too much...?

Please tell me it's not a Samsung SATA SSD. I'm planning to do the same in the future since TB-sized NVMEs are hella expensive from where I'm from.

Im sorry that happened to you, The only SSD that died on me was an Nvme, for the future, you can always use software like HDSentinel if you cant buy it you can use a cracked version; with it you can know the health of your drives and predict future failures it's very easy to use

It was. Samsung 870 EVO.

Even my dock can't read it anymore.

/stares at this post

/slowly glances at my "to-buy" list for PC parts and sees the same exact SSD model on said list

...Well shit. And here I thought their SATAs are safe and reliable and all that.

These are all normal, right...? RIGHT???

The Samsung ones are overheating, not by much; the max is around 57-58
The Kingstons are degrading faster its expected from a low-quality SSD at 60% Health You need to think about changing it or at least backing up data
