How to fix bad blocks on SSD

bad-blocksssd

I've got 14 bad sectors on my Kingston HyperX SSD. Although any benchmark shows that SMART for this drive is good or 100% on CrystalDiskInfo. Is there any way to erase them? I've tried Vitoria with remap and erase options, but with no effect.

As you have tried software with "remap" option it may well be the bad blocks already has been remapped. They still get shown though, so that you get aware of the problem.

Then the only concern you should have is: does the bad block count increase?

If the count starts to increase - or you see IO failures - you may have an imminent disk failure to handle
(i.e. copy data over to a new disk, scrap this one).
