I installed a Samsung 840 EVO a few days ago into my new T440p.
This evening I got the Windows warning that I need to 'Restart to fix drive errors'

I did this and then checked the Windows Event viewer, there is a CHKDSK entry with various errors:
Examining file name linkage ... 232196 index entries processed. Index verification completed. Found 2 lost files (\Windows\MEMORY.DMP <0x2,0x14506>, \pagefile.sys <0x21,0x16b12>); requesting reconnection to index "$I30" of directory "\Device\HarddiskVolume2\found.000" ... repaired online. Stage 3: Examining security descriptors ... Found corrupt security descriptor entry at offset 0xaad90 in \$Secure <0,0x9>:$SDS ... queued for offline repair. Found corrupt security descriptor entry at offset 0xab1f0 in \$Secure <0,0x9>:$SDS ... queued for offline repair. Found corrupt security descriptor entry at offset 0x80000 in \$Secure <0,0x9>:$SDS

Also, the SMART tool on the Samsung Wizard shows various Bad Count / Fail Count values of a 100.

Should I be worried - should I return the drive and get a new one?
I previously used a Samsung 830 for two years and was not aware of any errors like this...

Thanks!

I'd definitely back up the data immediately and RMA the drive.

Yesterday.

Good luck.

Thanks for the reply.
