ok have been having random windows crashs well mainly when running games system hangs then blue screens, so just did a hd tune pro scan and its found a error on my ssd its only maybe about 2 weeks old its the 3rd replacment ive had from ocuk, the drive is a ocz vetrex 1
question what should i do ask for another RMA or what as i say this is the 3rd drive with the same sorta error problems
thanks in advance
 
Maybe people viewed but didn't have an answer?

I would say RMA it, there's obviously something wrong. Maybe go for a different drive if this is the third faulty one.
 
If its a Vertex 3 then these problems are discussed at length on the OCZ forums. You will need a firmware update. & may be other tweaks depending on your motherboard. i.e is if Sandybridge.
The info in yr 1st post was limited, not much for people to go on.
 
ok here goes
system 9550 6gb of ram
and its a ocz vertex 1
yeah i know i didn't give a lot of info was tired and anoyed as this i the 3rd drive with the same issue bad blocks, 94% health status and its 2 weeks old going to rma this 1 and if the next 1 goes wrong refund and ordering an intel
 
Didn't notice the time of post:o
I have an OCZ Agility 3 & given all the hassle with it I doubt I like many others will not choose OCZ again in a hurry. Had to drop overclock on my 9550 to get it stable:(


I think most are going for Intel or the Crucial drives (M4) as the Corsair drives have the same Sandforce controller causing the problems with the OCZ ssd's.
 
thanks for the info as i say if this 1 goes wrong am defenlty going for an intel drive probably the 80gb 320 series is it
