SSD Issues
Today I noticed my PC was randomly hanging occasionally.
I cehcked the event logs and found a couple of these errors:
Reset to device, \Device\RaidPort0, was issued.
Request to physical disk 0 is timed out.
...but since then it looks like it has recovered and is now fine again.
The drive is a Crucial M4 SSD...
Are there any testing tools I can run on the drive to see if it's healthy?

Re: SSD Issues
Check your SMART status first to see what's happening (everest or other SMART tools should help)

Re: SSD Issues
Went to d/load Everest (now Aida64) - installed but it won't show any info for the drive...although it shows the other drives correctly. Guess it's just not supported.

Re: SSD Issues
Do you have SMART enabled in the bios for the drive?

Re: SSD Issues
are the marvell drivers installed? If so remove them they are a load of rubbish and use microsofts.

They work fine on my system. Crucial say they can be used with this drive for stability. Today was first time I had a small issue but it's corrected itself now.

Re: SSD Issues
I have a asus p67 sabertooth, and the early marvel drivers use to timeout on my SATA III 2tb hds. I believe gigabyte dont even have the drivers available to download anymore and just makes you use Microsoft Windows. Which motherboard do you have? You have three choices, if it continues to happen 1) try another port / achi chipset and 2) remove windows drivers or 3) try to find updated drivers.

According to that there's no issues with the "media" itself, more than likely to be a controller/connection issue.
