Purchased the bundle today. I don't have any use for DrivePool yet but will in the future. Meanwhile, installed Scanner.
So right after installing I ran a check on my SSD and it came clean. The always connected WD external hard drive didn't scan. I tried hitting "start" a few times, and then hit the Manuals to read on why. I guess it's because Scanner thought it wasn't connected for more than an hour (since Scanner itself was installed for less than an hour).
Anyway, I try pressing "Start" a few times while browsing the forums here and nothing happens. And then I hit "Scan" and it starts scanning the SSD again, but this time when it reaches around 80% I get a notification that the SSD (my system drive) is overheating:
S64GSSD370 ATA Device - 45˚C (Maximum: 44˚C)
This is during the scan, mind you. So obviously this has me concerned.
So did Scanner cause my SSD to overheat? is this normal? is it not? should I be worried? and how can I prevent this from happening due to a scan? Did I overheat the drive by performing two scans within 2 hours?
