I fix graphics card from time to time, and there there is a piece of software who is able to detect which memory chip is giving errors.
So now I am wonder if there is something similar to detect a failing flash chip inside an ssd ....

Hi!
My SSDDiag does a diagnostic of the various channels:

The big difference between GPU RAM and SSD Flash chips though is that flash chips are non volatile, so you would need to transfer the data to new chips, and I am not aware of such a solution for SSDs yet. For GPUs you just replace the DRAM chips.

But this works with specific models only, right?
