@Hyperhidrosis I sometimes have to unplug and replug my SSDs because they disappear from my computer.
@Tfmonkey @Hyperhidrosis Thats not a good sign at all
Replace ANY HDD/SSD/NVME thats over 3 years with a fresh one
Also NEVER get DLINK , CISCO or SEAGATE branded equipment

@charliebrownau @Hyperhidrosis they're Samsung SSDs, and my computer works fine for the most part. It's like an old car that you just have to give a little love sometimes to get going.
@charliebrownau @Tfmonkey @Hyperhidrosis >>Drives that drop off isnt good
@tfmonkey I would listen to this.

@PalePimp @Tfmonkey @Hyperhidrosis In the end its free advice
Listen to someone that has fixed computers since XT/286 and z80s
era
or treat it like a vehicle/woman and hope disconnecting and reconnecting it wont end up doing serious harm to it
Theirs a reason corporations use SAS drives often with 5 year warranty along with a solid SAN/NAS's setup using LTO tape drives for long term backup
compared to home user/soho/consumer SATA stuff with 1-3 year warranty

If your still using Windows, grab SIW
