Ok, so my SSD now has 5% health according to SSD life. I am in the process of sending it back to OCZ for them to check it out. I am just intersted to find out if the issue is on my end so i have a few questions.

Its seems that some program I have is wrighting a lot of data on to the drive is there anyway I can track what is doing that with some kinda of process sniffer or something? It does seems to happen when I am not really using the pc much and i dont have any hybernation set or anything it just runs 24/7, I only reset it when I am not using it but its rarely turned off.

Also, I am due to send back the drive to OCZ this weekend and that will leave me without a PC. Am I correct in thinking I can use the disk management software in windows 7 to shrink one of my drive partition on the storage drive and setup a temporary C drive to install windows while my SSD is away?
 
What model of OCZ drive and is it running the latest firmware? Cloning SSD to a HDD is almost impossible from what I understand. Im on my phone here or I would link you but I have subscribed to a thread where one member couldn't do it and no one seemed to know the answer.
 
Its the orginal OCZ agility 60gig. Its about 8months old now. I dont want to clone the drive at all I dont mind reinstalling windows on to my current storage drive I just wondered if its possible using the disk manager and without losing the 500meg or so of stuff I already have on that drive?
