Hi, there.
I'm not sure if I should post this question here, maybe I should go to
somewhere else like archlinux bbs or LKML, but if I did do anything wrong,
please point it out...
I'm currently encountering some really weird hardware problems, that is my
newly installed SSD randomly refuses to work. I have looked up in my kernel
messages and found something like this:

As you can see, the kernel is reporting some ata errors, and with these
errors reporting, the kernel tries to hard reset the ata link with the SSD,
sometimes it succeeded sometimes failed, and when failed, the drive is
turned down and disabled by kernel, which would immediately lead to serious
problems and crashes in both file system modules of kernel and user space.
I have googled through the net, and found this
https://ata.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Libata_error_messages wiki saying
that these error messages indicates "a hardware problem (often a bad SATA
cable or a bad or inadequate power supply)", but I'm not sure which
specific hardware problem this case really is. It can be an inadequate
power supply, or a hardware failure of the SSD ata controller. As I have
bought this drive in less than 3 months, I have to decide whether to start
a claim of refund, so I would like to know if these is anyone who
encountered any kind of similar problems here.
What bothers most in this case is that the problem seems to be completely
random and hard to reproduce. I have no idea how it is triggered, sometimes
when I start up virtual machine, sometimes when I plug in an external USB
device, sometimes when I have run the computer in long hours. But none of
the cases described above seems to be reproduce-able, this is driving me
mad...
Additional data about my hardware and software:
Model: Lenovo Thinkpad Edge E430 3254-A71
Hardware modifications:
An additional 4GB RAM is added.
Original HDD was replaced by a HGST HTS721010A9E630 7200 rpm drive
An external SanDisk SD6SF1M128G1022 solid drve was added to the spare
mSata/mPCIe port of the laptop.
Please help, any kind of reply will be greatly appreciated !
cheers,
Chaserhkj
