    I opened HD Tune yesterday evening and noticed 8 reallocated sectors in SMART. Intel's tool also reported the same thing.

    I ran Intel's full diagnostic in the Toolbox program and it passed data integrity test but instantly failed the read test. I ran HD Tune's read benchmark and it failed instantly as well.

    I've had bsods but they were due to Nvidia's faulty windows 10 driver. Stability is fine otherwise.

    I purchased it in 2013.

    are you using this as the OS drive?

    Edit: H2testw, this will help determine integrity

    Dhanyavaad for your reply. Yeah that's my OS drive. The drive passes integrity tests but fails read tests ... it's weird. For now the reallocated sectors aren't increasing so I suppose that's a good thing.

    Intel SSDs are known to do that,

    I wouldn't worry about it too much unless you see a dramatic increase in the volume of errors.

    Thanks Hilbert, I'll keep an eye on the SMART data.
