Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Does it matter that my drive is six months old? I've read that as SSDs become older, they slow down. Does that make my results typical, or is there an underlying problem?
I'm having a similar problem. However, as previously mentioned, this may be due using the drive to run my OS.
