Windows 10: bad hard drive

Unfortunately SSD's fail too, had one do that recently ( only 3 years old ( can't RMA as I took it apart to see if there was a loose connection inside ) - the only problem with a failed SSD is that you will turn it on and nothing, at least with a mechanical drive you have warning signs.

Don't know which brand you had for your SSD but Intel SSD do have a app that monitors the condition of its SSD and you can view it anytime. That will give you an idea of whats going on.

It was an OCZ drive, it has been binned so cannot tell you which one. Intel might be better, but, they will all fail in the end like all drives.
