Is the SSD dying ?
Is the SSD dying ?
Hello,
I visited a few months ago to deal with FPS problems, and I got used to them. But now I have another issue. Recently, my cursor began to stutter strangely. First, when I left something, it vanished completely; even though it works fine otherwise, it was invisible while hovering or moving. I had to open a game for it to show up again. Later, I noticed the cursor started stuttering intermittently. During a Discord stream, my cursor lagged, and the whole system slowed down too. I decided to check the Event Viewer and saw more than 100 recent errors—this is really strange. I’m not sure if it’s the mouse or the system, but I think it might be related to the OS. Maybe a reinstall is needed, or perhaps the SSD is failing? I’m still confused.
Specs:
I7-11700F CPU
Coolermaster Cooler (brand only)
B560 DS3H AC-Y1 Motherboard
64GB RAM
Kingston SNVS500G 500GB SSD
Seagate Barracuda 1TB HDD
3060TI GPU
EVGA 850GT PSU
LC27RG50FQNXZA Monitor at 60MHZ
I would initially inspect the mouse mat and underside for any gunky debris.
Next, I would swap the spinning rust Seagate for a contemporary SSD.
After that, I would execute UserBenchMark and share the outcome link in this discussion.
