System halts during data transfer exceeding 1GB to the SSD.
System halts during data transfer exceeding 1GB to the SSD.
Hello, I’m here to assist you. Your Samsung 970 Evo Plus 1TB SSD stopped working after three years. The issue matches what’s described in the JayZTwoCents video: after a quick replacement within a week, problems persist when handling files larger than 1GB. After several attempts—reinstalling, using chkdsk, running Samsung Magician, updating BIOS, Windows updates, and testing with different settings—the problem continues. I’ve also tried connecting via keyboard/mouse, but the drive still freezes or lags, sometimes making noise. The specs you provided are correct, and I appreciate your detailed report.
WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR refers to the CPU or a PCIe device, often seen with NVMe SSDs. It might also relate to the slot itself. Checking the specifications, it appears there are four M.2 slots available. You may want to try another slot if it was damaged during replacement. Consider adding a registry entry to link the NVMe issue directly to the BSOD and rule out other causes like CPU or GPU problems. To show extra details on the BSOD screen, modify the registry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\CrashControl. Set the DWORD value "DisplayParameters" to 1 using either hex or decimal. After saving, reboot to see the updated information. If the system restarts automatically and you need more time on the screen, refer to guides about dump types and uncheck automatic restart. Use the power button for a manual restart.
Thanks for your reply and the detailed guidance. Apologies for the delay since I’ve been busy at work. I’ve tested different M.2 slots but the issue persists. Please find the attached screenshot of the additional BSOD codes. Appreciate your help, IMG_6403 (1).HEIC.
It points the fault at the NVMe interface. Be aware it doesn’t distinguish between an SSD and an M.2 port. Also, monitor the SSD temperatures and refresh the firmware if needed.
