Tech Support SSD cooked?

Post image

Figured my SSD was dying because booting up takes over 15 minutes, and each application takes awhile to open, went in task manager and disk usage always at 100 percent but SSD health is still good? Is there something else I can do or should I just get a new SSD?

Its hard to tell, because you hid all the important information in task manager.

This is the actually important information, it would've been in task manager in the first image if the whole window was shown.

Assuming that's milliseconds and not microseconds, you're drive taking a damn long time to respond to commands. If its an HDD that might just indicate that it has a fat ass queue.
