Default Strange (and very annoying !!!!!) lockup

Yes its a process of elimination really. If its an ssd, my old 256 ssd
started like this before one day it was gone completely and had to put in a
new ssd and restore from a back up.

W10 with FireFox

Usually in the evening.

I'll look at both of my gmail accounts, but when
signing out of the second, the laptop freezes with
the disk light on.

There's no keyboard response in FireFox, not even
to Alt-F4, and no mouse cursor.

There's no Internet activity indicated on the
LEDs of the router.

The only recourse is to shut down by an extended
pressing of the power button.

It's only been happening in the last week or so.


1) Check hard disk for failure
2) Check you've updated Firefox
3) Use Chrome for gmail
