Hello!
I have a samsung SSD 840 evo 250GB. I noticed my computer suddenly got very slow out of nowhere yesterday. Thought it was the internet until i saw the results from samsung magician. Turns out that my random write was very low, much lower than what it usually is, like a tenth of it.

This link suggests in the solved answer that theres a problem with these basic model SSD's. I have a question, what exactly does "backup the drive, write all zeros to the drive, then restore the data" entail? Just reset the whole drive or do i have to do something more? And does it seem reasonable? Maybe someone else has had a similar problem. Thanks!
