I have been having fairly consistent hard drive issues popping up every two weeks or so (see logs below) but with no performance setbacks. I have reinstalled the OS on the drive but have still continued to experience these errors. I have not noticed any huge performance difference but am still getting the messages. Does anyone have any advice on how to deal with these other than wiping the drive and reinstalling the OS and my information app by app?
Also, I should mention that the drive is a hybrid SSD/Traditional drive in the form of a Seagate Momentus XT. I am curious if that type of drive may be causing the issue and am debating switching back to a normal drive...
Thanks!
