Hi, i recently bought this ssd http://www.pcgarage.ro/ssd/hyperx/fury-120gb-sata-iii-25-inch/ and i installed some games off internet and got some kind of virus that changed my keyboard in chinese ( i think it's chinese ). After a restart, my keyboard didn't worked at all! Not even on other PC's. Now i think my SSD got damaged and i am scarred to put it back. What should i do?

One of the games may have reconfigured your keyboard to be "Chinese". Probably installed some dedicated startup process to do just that. Or worse.

Can you boot into safe mode and get the keyboard to work?

Does another keyboard work?

If the current keyboard does not work on other computers then the keyboard is likely broken.

That said, what do you see that makes you believe that the SSD is damaged? Possibly corrupted but I would not expect physical damage per se unless the drive has been dropped, bent, or otherwise experienced some physical force.

Could be that the drive is low quality or counterfeit even.

See if you can install the Fury drive as either a second hard drive or as an external hard drive on another computer...

See if you can install the Fury drive as either a second hard drive or as an external hard drive on another computer. Then first run AV scans and then diagnostic software. Make sure that the second computer is well guarded with AV protection.

And please be aware that you may lose the data on the any drives involved. Backup.
