    To be clear, SSDs are a beast.  Most manufacturers use proprietary values here, so we have to interpret those values into the "correct" meanings.  

     

    If you submit to BitFlock and post the ID, we can take a look. Though I think that Alex (the Lead Developer) is going through BitFlock to add these interpretations.

    I appreciate the work StableBit does. I imagine there's a lot of labor that goes into software like this.

  2. SMART on my Samsung SSD drive is showing me a bizarre stat for Wear Leveling Count, which is currently at1% or 0.4%, depending on which number you look at. It says "There is only 100.0% of life left in this SSD disk," which clearly doesn't make sense.

    SSD Life is at 99%, with 57.2TB lifetime writes.

    Should I be concerned? Is this a bug?

  3. That's odd. Normally, ti should prompt for Admin access after it starts running. That it was not doing that is very unusual.

    Yeah, which is why I had a hunch that it'd work if I ran as Administrator: UAC wasn't showing up like it normally would.

     

    Haven't had the same problem with any other installers on my machine, but considering no one's apparently complained about this in over six months, if it is a bug, it's probably going to be nigh impossible to repro anyway.

  4. Found a simple workaround: run it as Administrator.

     

    Right-clicking on the .msi in Explorer doesn't bring up the Run as Administrator button, so I opened an Admin command prompt using ctrl+shift+enter in Start, and then ran it from there.

  5. I've been using DrivePool for a year or two, and suddenly this morning, I found that I had several hundred extra gigs of space. I hadn't lost any drives or any files, and I hadn't touched any settings -- it just suddenly happened.

     

    Upon investigating folder duplication, I discovered that for some reason, it was disabled for a few folders. I hadn't changed their permissions or anything either.

     

    Any idea why this might have happened?

  6. Hi,

     

    Is there a chance we can get EFS support for DrivePool?

     

    It's convenient to prevent tampering for multiple-user computers, especially when someone else is the Administrator.

     

    I'd imagine it's fairly trivial to make work with DrivePool, since it encrypts on a per-file basis, and the Windows API even allows you to open files in its raw encrypted format.

     

    Thanks in advance,
