Ok so the SSD was working fine till one day I came back from work and started using my computer and suddenly everything just kept loading, froze, and after a reboot the computer wouldn't boot because it could not see the drive anymore.
After doing a little research I found the power cycle method from Crucial and decided to go ahead with it. After a few attempts and no luck, I found another method of powering the SSD for 20 mins with no SATA connected, then connecting SATA and rebooting - BOOM! The SSD is visible.
Unfortunately, that's not the end of it. The drive is now visible but when I am trying to access it I get a message "F:\ is not accessible. The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable."
And this is the SSD Life reading.
Will formatting the drive help?
