?Selling several SSD - error checking?

If I want to do this, before I comment on condition I wanted to run some tests. For bad sectors and stuff, or anything a potential buyer might do themselves to check it. What programmes should I use?

Thanks!

Crystal disk info , crystal disk mark , hdtune , the first will tell you the health of the drives plus in depth info , 2nd one benches the drives and provides info on that , and ud tune will check latency and acsess times etc ... There plenty more tho out there , just a few I use

great thanks. What sort of disclosure do you think is reasonable here? After all a lot of buyers wont even be away of these tools. I want to run something and then give a honest description of its condition

Oddly the drive in question says "unknown" whereas the rest are "good". Any idea why it does that? The drive is working, Ive tested it to read and write a file etc. Thx

Might have a problem reading the firmware on the drive , unsure tho tbh never had that problem .
