My PC Storage Temp

[GLenn63]

I have a Maxtor Z1 SSD 480GB running at 100.0 Centigrade. Could this be the cause of serious PC problems I'm having ?

Yes it probably is the reason, at 70c the max operating temp according to it's data sheet at Seagate over that temp the SSD is probably creating a ton of CRC errors in the data it's copying you need to stop using it if you can't get it's temps down to below 70c

Running an SSD at 100 Celcius is not normal, but I also think that the temps reported might be fake. does it burn your finger if you touch it?
