Thanks for the tips! I did a slow format on it and I could fill it again to the brim with great speed. Then I erased everything and it slowed down the same. Did another format, now it works. Strange

Hello! I have a good old OCZ Vertex 2 60 GB with around 17 TB writes to date. Last time I wrote it full with large files, one week later I deleted these files, but copying into it became really slow. It starts with 30 minute for a 1 MB file, then it goes up to 10s of hours and never finishes. The memory chips/controllers are not hot at all. I don't need data, just curious what's the background issue here. Is this normal for 10+ year old ssds? Is it age, or reached its end of life due to TBW? Thanks! |

Amazing it still works. Run a secure erase to speed it up again and any firmware updates to make it as stable as possible. No matter what, don't store anything irreplaceable on it. |

Examine the SMART report with a tool such as CrystalDiskInfo. |
