For the drop to 98% it will take considerably longer. ![]() "Health" dropping relatively quickly to 99% is normal. I am currently running it in Full Performance mode under Samsung Magician.Īttaching the CrystalDiskMark screenshot as well, are those Read/Write values normal when it is set to Full Performance Mode under Samsung Magician?įrom the above reply my SSD falls in the bad manufacturing category so I will keep updating here if anything shows up.ġ) Your SSD is completely fine so far. It said it will take 40 minutes for 1 TB SSD but it took 2 hours, I am not sure if that is of any concern? I ran a full Diagnostic Scan through Samsung Magician just to be sure as well - screenshot attached. Can someone please confirm from the attached CrystalDiskInfo screenshot? I have been using it for over 2.5 months now (on shipped firmware, updated the firmware only yesterday) and I think everything looks fine so far - only health dropped by 1%. Stock/Shipped Firmware Version : SVT01B6Q So I was looking for changelog for firmware version "SVT02B6Q" and it lead me to the reddit post/this thread. Near the bottom, a new SMART attribute gets added on the new firmware, says vendor specific. What I also found interesting is the reports some people got refunds without even been offered a replacement, is that samsung having no faith in a replacement 870 EVO working for their workload or perhaps just lack of stock? I have never heard of a company offering refunds like that before on manufacturer RMA's. ![]() ![]() I wanted to see first how long a erase cycle takes on the shipped firmware, then flash and see if its accelerated, of course one can not downgrade flash, so flashing is a full on commitment in that new firmware version. If the new firmware prevents it from kicking off (I also have same suspicion) I wonder if it does it the horrible way of forcing data refresh which of course accelerates erase cycles, a hacky way of fixing dud hardware. Going to do a badblocks scan on it and see what happens. I got mine from Amazon but obviously well past their no frills return policy now. I have contacted the ADATA Customer Support but they refused to help and left me with the lamest possible excuse: "Su650 is not in the ssdtoolbox support ease notice." Not to mention that their list is not the list of supported models but a list of some of their models, some supported and some not which doesn't make the unlisted model either supported or not.Sept 2021 manufactured also bad drives. The update failed in the middle of the progress and now my ADATA SU 650 is seen in the Device manager as REALTEK_RL6468 and it's totally unusable! Can't even initialize in the Disk Management where it's seen as 1MB drive. Hopping to solve the problem I downloaded the SSD TOOLBOX from the ADATA website as the only official tool for the firmware update. But neither this solved my problems with the SSD so I concluded it was the SSD all along. After the installation I formatted (full format) the SSD creating my two partitions from scratch. I thought it was a Windows problem so I tried a lot of solutions which all led me to the last one. ![]() After every single Windows restart during the boot time it would scan one of partitions and repair it. I have it for little over 2 years and it was making me problems almost half of this time.Īfter every Windows 10 update one (of two) partition would become inaccessible ("access is denied"), some files damaged and even some missing. I have the ADTATA SU 650 960GB installed in my Dell G7 laptop as a secondary drive where I keep my work files.
