I’m using KDE Neon with the latest version of Plasma. Sometimes I get a warning that my SSD has poor health and may die soon. When I check the SMART stats the drive seems fairly healthy. Is this just a Plasma bug?

    I’d recommend you to make backups either way. I’ve had a SSD with SMART status “good” very suddenly die before, so don’t take any chances!

      This happened to me a few weeks ago and the pain is still fresh. Please tell us your data is safely backed up, OP.

      Yeah, I keep everything important backed up. I’m definitely fine if it dies. I’m just curious really.
