I've got a SATA SSD, the Adata SU630 (480GB), and I'm facing a concerning problem. I've noticed over 20,000 reallocated sectors and around 300 uncorrectable errors. I checked this with three different programs: CrystalDiskInfo, Hard Disk Sentinel, and the Adata SSD software. While Hard Disk Sentinel indicated a critical condition (100% performance, but only 6% health with about 10 days to failure), the other two report 100% health and a raw health value of 64. I've already backed up my files, but some older data is showing corruption with errors like "file missing" when I try to copy it to another drive. I've been aware of the 20k reallocated sectors for over six months, but the SSD seemed fine until now. How do I handle this situation?

It sounds like you're dealing with bit rot, which usually means those files are lost for good. Honestly, the best course of action is to stop using that drive and replace it immediately.
