        • Create a list of supported drives available on the website

          I was looking for if my Kingston SSD is fully supported - it looks like it is, but the explanation of the SMART attributes is different than in other tools that read them - it makes me wonder if the drive is actually supported, or SSD life just tries to guess - with more-less success - what attributes mean what.

              • Process consumes CPU % too much

                Today I found that one of my core was keep hitting nearly 80% of it's workload. And I was wondered what process was holding my CPU back. And I found that ssdlife.exe process was consuming 50% ~ 85% of one of my CPU core. I checked my laptop, which has a dual code, and I found the same issue. I do not know what makes SSDLife to take more than 50% of CPU core power, but I personally think this must be fixed. If I was a single core CPU user, you can easily imagine how annoying this will be.

                  Yes, we understand annoying of such CPU usage, but your report are first, so we need to investigate the problem to find source. This can be our bug or can be some misconfiguration in system.

                  Can you please send us your database file located in \ProgramData\BinarySense\SSDLife and also send us your SSDLife settings (registry – HKLM\Software\Binarysense\SSDLife)

                  If you have troubles using regedit – write to our support, they give you detailed instructions.

                  Thank you for your cooperation!

                    • Explain what this program is and does

                      I was looking at your website because I just installed my first SSD and Tweaktown mentions this utility. I can't find anything on this site explaining what your product does. The only clue I have is the screenshot page. You may want to put a paragraph on the HOME page.
