have you looked at the SMART data?

have you tried the Kingston Toolbox 2.0?

It enables users to read drive information such as Serial Numbers, Firmware versions, and S.M.A.R.T. attributes. Kingston’s Toolbox v2.0 software, instructions and the S.M.A.R.T. Attribute decoder are included in this download.

Your SATA controller must be configured for AHCI mode within the BIOS and you must connect the drive to a native SATA port. Third party SATA ports are not supported when updating your firmware. For Windows 8, 7 and Vista users, the utility must be run in the OS as "Administrator".?
