"Available Reserve Space" failure(?) on new SanDisk Ultra II 960GB

Hello,

SanDisk support have seen lot of people reporting this issue with SSD Dashboard showing newly purchased Ultra II SSDs have health issues and Available Reserve Space error in SMART. They have already started working on it to produce a fix pretty soon. This issue is related to Dashboard software not calculating the value of some SMART attributes correctly, this will not affect drive’s functionality or performance. SMART should come out just fine trying to test it using any other third party tool. They recommend Crystal Disk Info to provide SMART report in the event of encountering any issue before they come up with a fix.

I hope that helps!

Thanks!!!
