    Hi

    Just got the ASUS UX31 with 128Gb Sandisk SSD. I also have an Alienware M17xR2 which has a SSD and Intel provides a programme so I can regularly check the SSD etc.

    I havent come across any software/utility that allows me to check the SSD on my UX31 for errors, diagnostics etc.

    Can anyone help me?

    Thanks

    Yes the Intel SSD toolbox does provide some useful stuff, but there is no simliar utility for either ADATA or Sandisk SSDs as far as I know. You can use any freeware SMART utility to read its self-report/health info.
