So, I have an Asus G53SW-A1, and recently (early September) bought an Intel SSD.
It apparently has been running fine, but checking Event Viewer I see The IO operation at logical block address LNLNLNL for Disk 1 was retried. Where LNLNLNL is a random 7 character string.
I've also got "Driver detected an internal error in its data structures for ." where there SHOULD be something in front of the period, but there isn't. I DID try to install Alcohol 52%, but it kept failing.
Should I ditch the SSD and go back to my Momentus XT? Or are there other issues? I checked my temps with Throttle Stop and CPU/GPU were 40-50C.
Thanks.

Ok so ... I've narrowed it down. It is NOT the SSD.
Kaspersky was causing issues, and I removed it, and haven't bluescreened since.
Another problem, however, is that now when I play games, be they Need For Speed Word, or Euro Truck Simulator 2, the GPU temp skyrockets from 50C to 80C in under 20 minutes. I have to pause the game, go back to the desktop for 5 or so minutes to drop it back to 60C and play for 15 more minutes, rinse and repeat.
It's probably the thermal as I saw some of it squeezing out the edges yesterday, when I opened up the machine. I'll take it in to the office in Markham early tomorrow and get it repasted. -
That kind of temperature behavior is normal,80C in no cause for concern hardware wise, if you're experiencing throttling like other SW owners, that's a different issue, but 80C is a perfectly safe temperature.
