Re: HDSentinel seems overly cautious on high endurance SSDs

It was the "more strict" setting that caused the dramatic difference in the health report. This was a fresh install (on a new machine) of portable version 6.01, and I didn't change any settings, so it's odd that it was enabled. Still, I think that HDSentinel could benefit from a change to ...
