II. How to self-check or repair the SSD?
1. Use the Chkdsk tool to self-check and repair the SSD
Chkdsk is a command that comes with Windows to check disk status, memory status, and number of files in a specified path .
Running the Chkdsk command is very simple, the specific steps are as follows:
Step 1: Run the computer and enter
(cmd)
in the search box to search for the Command Prompt application, then right-click it and select the Run as Administrator option.
Step 2: In the command prompt window, enter
chkdsk
F:
/f
command, replacing F: with the appropriate drive letter for the solid state drive. Press Enter , then enter y twice to initiate the disk self-test command. If chkdsk cannot lock the drive, a message will prompt to check the drive upon the next computer restart.
Step 3: After restarting the computer , if issues arise during self-test , access the command prompt and type
chkdsk
drive letter:
/f /x
to check the drive (replace “ drive letter ” with the appropriate letter , /x forces unmounting if needed). Confirm with “
y
” to initiate disk repair .
2. Use tools to check the service life of SSD
When you still cannot solve the existing problems through the above methods, you can also check the service life of the SSD with the help of CrystalDiskInfo software, and then deduce part of the cause of the error.
CrystalDiskInfo is a powerful hard disk detection tool, which can detect the hard disk usage including parameters such as hard disk, interface, rotation speed, usage time and real-time temperature. The following are the specific steps to use the software.
Download, install and open the CrystalDiskInfo software. As shown in the figure, a certain type of Samsung solid-state drive is being detected. In the column of health status, it is detected that the remaining life of the solid-state drive is 93%. The lifespan of a solid-state drive is actually determined by the amount of NAND writes, and the amount of NAND writes is affected by both host writes and write amplification.
If you find that the service life of the SSD is nearing the end, what you need to do is to transfer the data from the SSD as soon as possible to prevent data loss due to SSD damage. It is recommended that you use
