Hello, all.
I like to occasionally run DiskCheckup to monitor the health of my drives, and I'm seeing something that's a bit worrying.
As you can see, the Raw Read Error Rate on my Vertex 3 is very high, and the Predicted TEC Date is pretty soon.
I've been using this drive since April, 2012, as a boot drive. I haven't noticed any change in performance. Boot times are still quick, and the few programs I do have installed on it launch almost instantly. I haven't seen any freezing or stuttering, either.
I don't have a lot of experience with SSDs (this is my first one), so I'm not sure if it's time to back everything up and invoke my warranty or not.
The rest of my system specs:
EVGA Mobo
Core i7 920 @ 3.5Ghz
12GB DDR3 1600
Sapphire Radeon HD 7950
1x 1TB WD Black
1x 1TB Seagate Barracuda
Corsair TX850M
Thanks in advance for any comments/advice!
