Unknown attribute 169 failing

Hello,


I have a Model: TOSHIBA THNSNF256GMCS (FSTAN103) which is a 256GB SSD using mSATA which came with my toshiba laptop.


The only test that is failing is attribute 169 which does not have a description and I could not find any information about this on fourms, faqs or your mailing achieve. It shows that the drive is failing soon.


Additional information: The drive contains windows which is corrupted which drove me to use a linux boot with smartclt to check its health. I could still mount the drive as read-only in linux and save my files but cannot boot or repair the drive.


Help would be appreciated,

Thanks very much.
