About once a day I am seeing a process (not always the same one) lock up in a way that I cannot even kill it and I need to restart windows (10) to free it up.
Each time this happens it is accompanied by the error "Reset to device, \Device\RaidPort2, was issued." in the System Event Logs...
All my drives are Samsung SSDs and I have verified that they are all in good condition via Samsung Magician tools.
I have tried the suggestion related to disable some power management settings as in this forum post
I have ensured that all my drivers are update date and my ASUS B350M bios is up to date etc. and have tried both installing and uninstalling Intel Rapid Storage Device.
Anyone had this problem and found a fix?
UPDATE: Since that link is for the Dell forum and one needs to register/login to see it, here is what it said (and what I have tried)
3First of all we need to change "AHCI Link Power Management" which is a hidden setting on power management. Open up registry editor and change the following settings.
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\PowerSettings\0012ee47-9041-4b5d-9b77-535fba8b1442\0b2d69d7-a2a1-449c-9680-f91c70521c60
Change attributes from 1 to 2
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\PowerSettings\0012ee47-9041-4b5d-9b77-535fba8b1442\dab60367-53fe-4fbc-825e-521d069d2456
And again change Attributes from 1 to 2.
Now go to Control Panel -> System and Security -> Power Options click on "Change Plan Settings" and then click on "Change advanced Power settings".
Now under "Hard disk" you should have AHCI Link Power Management - HIPM/DIPM and AHCI Link Power Management - Adaptive options.
Change "AHCI Link power management" To active, which means there is no power management for AHCI and finally change Adaptive to 0 milliseconds (Although if you enabled "active" this option has no effect).
Finally under "PCI Express" Change "Link State Power management" to OFF.

So.... turned out to be a problem with my Power Supply.
It was not regulating properly any more and under certain loads was spiking the hardware.
This resulted in the SSDs (which are good quality Samsung ones) shutting down.
