OMV seems to have broken my SSD

Hi there,

so I installed OMV 6 on an SSD and ran it for a while. Then on one bootup I did after forcing power off the system (so no proper shutdown) the BIOS gave me the following message before further booting the system: S.M.A.R.T Status bad, backup and replace.
So I took the disk out and tried everything to format the disk after that because I wanted to change the OS and now got one reason more to do so... No matter which tools and which OS (Windows, macOS and Linux) nothing worked and the disk remains unchanged. Manually deleting files on the disk showed me that three directories (lost+found; usr; var) aren't deletable.

Anybody got any idea how I can rescue the disk?

Ye makes sense... What makes me wonder though is that the SSD isn't even more than a month old.

So I guess sending back and ordering a new one is the only way to go then, huh?

Zitat von mi-hol

for electronic devices its normal to fail early or last "forever", that is called "infant mortality rate"

Thanks for the info. Interesting.
