SSD: How many bad blocks to be considered faulty

[Jobos]

I've been having problems with a win 10 machine running a Origin SSD. It started with random crashes and running slower than it should. Event log shows 11000 event ID 7 bad blocks so with all these errors would I be safe to say the SDD is faulty?

May be worth running: https://gsmartcontrol.sourceforge.io/home/ to see what it reports for SMART stats.

I'm not familiar with this software but he only thing I can see that highlighted is the number of reported uncorrectable errors on the statistics tab, this result is 1279.

Be warned that when SSD's fail they generally do it without warning.

The fact you are getting a warning is a pretty good indicator that you should no longer trust this drive.
