Samsung SSD 860 EVO randomly freezing on Win 10
hello fellas,
I'm in desperate need of some advice from experts :P
Google and some other forums can't help me with my problem, i've looked everywhere and its the 2nd time this problem exists.
my problem:
I have a SSD built into my computer, where win10 and some programms are saved on. this one is a samsung 840 evo. THIS is working perfectly fine.
Then i bought another, bigger one (500gb), Samsung 860 Evo, which i use as an "external" drive, so i can use it for games and bigger programs.
The first 860 evo i bought last year end of Summer, and it started having problems around christmas.
It started randomly freezing the programs/games saved on there so as to get 2-3 seconds complete freezing action.
At first i thought, the SSD is broken somehow. and before i'm trying to fix anything with software as to "make it worse", i just get the 2-year-warranty from amazon and get a new one.
This one, also a 860 evo 500gb same build, was the first month perfectly running smooth and stable.
til last week. Same problems arise again and it just randomly freezes.
Attached are 2 Screenshots, the first (1) where i try to write something on the SSD, and the 2nd (2)while trying to installing a game (5gb size) and it just stops during the installing process due to this freeze.
what i tried so far with this freeze:
- stop superfetch / windows search
-achi link power management - hipm/dipm : always active
-i have no antivirus installed, so no need to change something there
-firmware of the 860evo is also up-to-date
