So I just found a file on my SSD that I can't read fully anymore. Worried. Got the stats. I don't really know much about SSDs. Does this mean this one might begin failing on me?
Btw, did you know that if you have a file that can't be read, and you ask Windows 10 to compress it, it'll successfully create a zip archive with only the chunk of the file before the unreadable bit, and NOT PUT UP A SINGLE ERROR MESSAGE?! Now you know.
@dosnostalgic SSDs are usually heavily overprovisioned, meaning their capacity is larger than stated, and bad "sectors" are just decommissioned and replaced by some from the reserve.
My offense here would actually be theCrystal tool: why put a huge "99% healthy" of the stats show otherwise?
Also, I have NEVER In 25 years with PCs got a SMART warning before disk death, despite some 10 drives actually dying. I did, however get warnings and the drives soldiered on for years. 
@dosnostalgic@mastodon.social@stooovie I get it, but I'm finding files with unreadable bits. Surely that's not a great sign.
