Disk recently bricked. Software or hardware issue? #661
-
|
I recently got a new pc with an RTX 5080 in it and ran SwarmUI on it for less than 6 hours until the boot ssd bricked (presumably) while I left it generating images. I have only vague ideas of what could have caused this;
I had SwarmUI and the backend running off a disk(D:) that was not the boot disk (C:). Disk(D:) was fine after (C:) bricked. In any case, would using a docker protect me from something like this in the future? Was it more likely a defective disk or a software thing? |

if it's the SSD that failed, torch is irrelevant -- it's a hardware issue with the drive. There's no particular software way, as a bug or anything else, to cause an SSD to fail (short of some advanced driver-level screwery direct writing to the FS root or something? but that'd have to be intentional to happen - and if it did happen, it'd just be a wipe and you can reuse the drive after). No change to a bit of software running out of a different drive would change anything about your boot drive failing. |

Thanks, I appreciate it. unfortunately, I couldn't fix the ssd, but that's beyond the scope of this discussion. |
