    For the past month I have been having an issue with my intel ssd G2 (80gb). For some reason, my notebook will hang on boot up. Windows 7 will need to correct the start up. After a couple of days later, the issue will come up again. I dont understand why this is happening.
    I have reformat twice and I am still having this issues. I have tried M$ default drivers, and intel rst 9.6.4.100.2 driver. I downloaded hd tune and this is what I got from Health tap. I also ran error scan (full) and got no errors. I download Intel ssd toolbox and ran the full diagnostic scan and my drive passed both test with no errors. Should I be concern about the Health status on hd tune? I had this drive since Jan of this year. My numbers look fine for CrystalDiskMark.

    Another member here (Forge?) had similar issues with his SSD and decided to sell it because eventually because it would not be recognized in any of his systems.

    You may want to try to secure erase the drive (not simply format it), re-flash the firmware update and see if it still behaves the same.

    I think you may possibly be looking for a new SSD/HD soon?

    Hope others give more helpful advice.

    Good luck.
