I was defragging the SSD a few times
Don't. Defragging a SSD achieves nothing other than shortening its life. With no moving parts, file fragmentation isn't an issue in the first place

To add to the above, SSD fragmentation is actually beneficial. In addition to increasing drive life by using all cells more or less equally, data being retrieved from multiple flash chips allows the controller to read in parallel and thereby increase read speeds.

Tried the SSD in a PC at work but no luck. Computers won't even boot with the drive plugged in.

Luckly since I've had network storage, theres not much except programs on the SSD to start with.

For about $190.00AUD I should be able to pick up a new 120GB drive and start off with a clean slate.


Hmm! time to back up the Network storage!!!!!
