    Crucial Storage Executive won't run Self-test on the boot drive


    New Crucial MX500 and new Win10 Pro 64-bit installation Version 2004 Build 19041.685.
    I rolled back from 2H20 which prevents some older programs from running.

    I installed Crucial's StorageExecutive version 6.09.092020.06.
    I have 4 drives in the system, and 3 of them check out in the Self-Test just fine, but the boot drive Self-Test won't run.
    I've had contact with Crucial, who asked for system details and problems, and only response has been a questionnaire on their support performance.

    Anyone else have this problem?
    Can you run the Self-test in Storage Executive on your system?

    Could not do a system backup until running CHKDSK a few times and a SFC /scannow. CHKDSK found a bad sector and a Volume Bitmap error. No Windows System file errors found.
    Very disappointed that a brand new drive behaved this way and that the Windows 10 Pro installation didn't do a decent format and catch these errors.

    I'm waiting to hear from Crucial if this drive still has a problem or if it is problem in their Storage Executive software.

    :)

    Crucial Storage Executive won't run Self-test on the boot drive

    Crucial Storage Executive

    Hi

    I have a new system I designed myself. Windows 10, 2004.
    I been using Crucials Storage Executive since I got a Crucial M.2 SSD.

    Today the software said upgrade availible to 6.06, and a button to upgrade. (I have 6.05)
    The upgrade inside the software did ran its thing and reboot.

    Still 6.05 when I ran the software again.
    So,
    I uninstalled using RevuUninstaller and cleaned traces.
    I downloaded the latest version from Crucials homepage:
    Crucial Storage Executive Tool | Firmware Download | Crucial.com

    The zip file only contains 6.05. And the 6.06 got released in june? (date from crucial.com)

    Anyone else had this issue?

    But maybe more importantly, do I need this software? I used it to update firmware and test Momentum Cache. And just like other posts here about the software, no more speed on M.2 SSD is needed.

    I did not notice any difference in speed from a Civ 6 Benchmark, after I removed the software.
    Anyone who could enlighten me about this software, please?
