Hi @PHP_Sucks, and welcome!
On personal note, I beg to differ. PHP is awesome!
I suspect this. Boot into a live ISO environment, install smartmontools
and run a drive test.
- Installing
smartmontools
:
pamac install smartmontools
-
Test(s) to run:
- Health check:
sudo smartctl --health /dev/sdX
- Exhaustive data:
sudo smartctl --all /dev/sdX
-
Short test:
sudo smartctl --test short /dev/sdX
Where /dev/sdX
is the drive identifier, which can be obtained with:
lsblk
That ought to tell you more about what’s wrong.
Also, if you’re looking for a more lightweight desktop environment, have a look at:
