Hard Drive Casuing BSOD's and Disk Read Errors

Hi all,

My first post so I’m not sure if this is in the right place, let me know if I need to move it. I have a WDC wd10ezex-60zf5a0 and am getting blue screens of deaths (BSOD) and disk read errors from the BIOS. I did some tests on other components and they all turned up clean, but my disk bought up these errors:

Thanks.

that app is designed for HDD. you should use the WD SSD Dashboard to check the health of the SSD.

For BSOD issues get the memory dump and use a tool like whocrashed to analyze the memory dump and that should give you a better i dea of what is causing the BSOD.

WD10EZEX-60zf5a0 is a 3.5 HDD.

This post is in the wrong thread…No biggie either way. I’m sure someone will chime in.

With my limited knowledge I would say go buy a new drive and be done with it unless there is still some warranty left on this one. You could also run the WD disk diag software which I think can give you an error number to use in you RMA to WD.

But FYI I just searched this drive model and these things can be had 1TB model for 50 USD or less.

ah your right I didn’t notice that. I would still suggest looking at the memory dump to see what is causing the BSOD.
