What to do if ssd has broken blocks?
The other day, Disk Drill on mac os reported that my second SSD (Samsung EVO 500gb) (not the system one) had broken billets - 132 pcs.
Perhaps they appeared earlier, but this did not affect the operation of the disk. And at a fine moment, an error pops up from the Disk Drill program that the disk is possibly damaged. I looked at the disk - it is in Fineder, but it does not have the ability to record. The computer rebooted - the system does not see the disk.
The disk was pulled out, checked to be sure that the controller of the computer itself is working fine - I stuck an old hdd 500 gigs. Everything is working. Then I put the patient's SSD into an external USB docking station. The disk determined for a long time and eventually decided. What's more, it has the ability to record. I returned it to the computer - the same story .... I thought maybe it was necessary to move the cables. Now I understand for sure that the problem is in the SSD and Disk Drill sometimes sees it and reports 132 bad blocks.
The information as a whole is already duplicated and I'm not particularly worried about them. But it’s a shame for the disk - I don’t want to buy a new SSD and there is no desire to install an HDD either. Does it make sense to restore or what do (remap) SSDs do there? Can broken blocks continue to grow?
ps laptop usually works without turning off. there were no endless requests for a dying disk. food is always available. the disk was used primarily for data storage (no write-read fanaticism)

What to do if ssd has broken blocks?Replace with correct one.
Does it make sense to restore or what do (remap) SSDs do there?No. It's impossible.
Can broken blocks continue to grow?The disk is already bad. What difference does it make what happens next, it can't get any worse.
laptop usually works without shutting down. there were no endless requests for a dying diskIt is unrealistic to exhaust the write resource in a laptop, it's just that such a disk has been caught. Bad luck.
Back up, change.
100% will die soon.
This HDD can live with bad blocks for years.
And SSDs die quickly.
After analyzing the error code from another program DriveDx. She was 199 (I don't remember exactly). In general, this is a suspicion of a train. Actually, I reconnected it and everything immediately worked. The errors disappeared and DiskDrill stopped producing supposedly broken blocks.
Thanks to all! All the best!
