Long story short, I start to download the update for Cyberpunk (2.01) and after a few seconds (10-15) it stops downloading and anything on my D: drive just becomes unavailable and nothing can access it.
I cleared out more space on it (had approx 60GB free) and now have over 150GB just in case it needs to do some weird stuff with the entire game for the patching and it still died a death.
As it's my games drive, I was able to update and play existing games already on there via steam without issue.
Under Windows Logs > System
Event viewer has a plethora of Event 51: An error was detected on device \Device\Harddisk1\DR1 during a paging operation.
Also noticed an Event 7: The device, \Device\Harddisk1\DR1, has a bad block.
This scared me a bit as that would suggest my SSD has gone bad (or starting to), tried to run chkdsk on D: and it just froze as again the SSD just goes 'poof' and same via file explorer, I get a level or two down and then just says it's inaccessible/unavailable.
Upon restart, ran chkdsk fine, 0 bad sectors. Loaded up Path of Exile and did a map fine, loaded up League of Legends but didn't play as I had enough salt from this issue already. So something funny is going on with the downloading and it working (not sure how).
Removed GOG Galaxy, reinstalled back on my D: drive perfectly fine and now in the process of redownloading Cyberpunk. So far 27GB redownloaded perfectly fine as of writing this.
I will see what happens if I need to do post patching (no doubt I would need to) and update this as follows.
EDIT
-----
So it got to around 10GB left of 75GB before it happened again but it managed to recover itself and game loads up fine (so far) and loaded my recent save.
Again got another Event 7 looking at event viewer.... So could be my SSD dying but again it still doesn't make sense quite yet, chkdsk hasn't returned anything yet. Haven't tried other apps to check the disk
