SSD DC S3520
INTEL SSDSCKJB480G7
It is not good NAND Writes/HOST Writes >5.
Nand writes increase every hour for 2,3...2,8 Gb even when HOST Writes is not increase - disk is idle and not system.
How can I make dNand wr = dHost wr.
Also disk do not want to sleep.
Dear Igor,
Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention. It sounds like you are experiencing an unusually high number of NAND writes relative to the HOST writes, especially when the disk is idle. Please, try the following steps and considerations that might help resolve this issue
-
Use the Solidigm™ Storage Tool to check and adjust the drive's settings. This tool can provide deeper insights into drive behavior and allow for adjustments that might not be available through other software.
-
System Configuration: Check your system's configuration to ensure there are no background tasks or system settings that might cause excessive writing to the SSD. This can include:
- System Restore settings
- Page file usage
- File indexing services
-
Power Settings: Adjust the Windows power settings to ensure they are optimized for SSD use. Specifically, check the settings related to idle time and power saving modes that might affect when the drive enters a lower power state or sleep mode.
-
Drive Health Check: Although your drive is showing as 'Good' in health, running a diagnostic scan using the Solidigm™ Storage Tool can provide more detailed health information and help identify any underlying issues that might not be immediately apparent.
If after following these steps, the NAND writes still seem disproportionately high compared to HOST writes, or if the drive refuses to go into sleep mode, please create a support ticket with us.
We are here to help and ensure your SSD operates efficiently.
Kind regards.
Gleb
