Windows 10: SSD question

Windows 10 20H2 has been writing 3x more than reading on my SSD, I don't even write that much data myself. It's averaging about 50GBs a day everyday since I bought it and it's chopping the life off my SSD. I've had S.M.A.R.T bullshit me before but I think that's not the case this time.

A friend of mine also bought the same SSD as me in the same day and his stats are completely normal...

Should I be worried? Is there something really wrong with my installation? Help please.

SSD Crucial Bx 100 - rattling/vibrating. Possible?

This has been suggested several times already, and it has been suggested you try to move the SSD, remove it, or even suspend it in your case. Will you please try one of these?

If you don't understand vibration and resonance, please refer to @dorsetknob 's post above. *Smile It has been explained that something else moving/vibrating (even if you don't think they're vibrating they are...), fans, hard disk drives, and anything with a motor will cause some form of vibration at certain frequencies. This can be transfered through your case's chassis and where you mounted your SSD could be reaching a certain frequency that causes it to slightly move and rattle against the case.

We are suggesting you take action and report back..you keep asking questions from step 1...we should be on step 4 by now...that is solution.

Try what has been suggested and report back please. Otherwise all you're doing is leading this thread in an endless circle and the help will stop shortly thereafter.

*Toast :toast:

BitFenix Prodigy Case - tips

3 questions for you fellas:

• What kind of PSU would I need for a gt720+i5+hdd+ssd? I was thinking 400w should be plenty, right?
• What kind of cool blue lighting would you suggest for that case? I got the one with a big window (the case is shown in my profile picture)
