Files hash get changed

August 2nd, 2018, 15:41

Hi
i have a strange problem.
i have a ssd hard drive.
the problem is that my files hash get change for some reason.
i found out about that by watching my video files & here & there i saw some visual error.
i checked the hash & compared it to the hash of this file that i had on a backup - & it was changed! the file on the backup didn't got this visual error...
why a lot of my files got this problem?
i tried checking my hard drive with chkdsk & with "Data Lifeguard Diagnostic for Windows" but no errors found on the drive.

Is you SSD a Samsung brand SSD? If so, what model specifically? Maybe can post a pic or link to that drive model.

Sounds like a silent data corruption.
Perhaps you could check if issue happens with another SSD drive, just to be sure it is with SSD drive and not with storage controller in your PC (or maybe buggy controller drivers)?
I had similar issue around 10 years ago and i've found out it was caused by buggy windows drivers for ICH10R controller.
