shankle Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Thank you for Speccy, I contribute to Piriform every year. Speccy v1.30.730 (64-bit) Storage does not take into account an SSD Drive. For the SSD it is showing the characteristics of a Spinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators mta Posted December 29, 2016 Moderators Share Posted December 29, 2016 Speccy shows my current Samsung EVO (and previous SSD) OK make sure you have the latest firmware for the SSD. what's your OS? can you include a screenshot? Backup now & backup often.It's your digital life - protect it with a backup.Three things are certain; Birth, Death and loss of data. You control the last.

shankle Posted December 29, 2016 Author Share Posted December 29, 2016 I tried to make a copy from Speccy to this web site. No Luck. Have to do it by hand. Will give the data in question. If you need more just ask. Windows 7 pro 64-bit. I sent a message to Kingston inquiring if I have the latest firmware. Kingston suv400s37240g ata device heads 16, cylinders 29,185, tracks 7,442,175, sectors 468,857,025. firmware version 0c3fd6sd As you can see this does not apply to an SSD. Thanks for your help.

Moderators mta Posted December 29, 2016 Moderators Share Posted December 29, 2016 Ah, OK then. Well sadly Speccy shows those figures for me as well - as it does for everyone. It's because those values are present in WMI, and basically Speccy is just the heavy lifter between you and WMI. You can get these values manually by starting an elevated command prompt, type in powershell, hit enter, then type in gwmi win32_diskdrive | ft totalheads, totalcylinders, totalsectors So, yes, not relevant to SSD's but Speccy is simply passing along what it is finding.
