Arch Freezing

The last five days my Arch system has frozen at some point overnight. This morning I was copying files from a Windows PC to Arch. The copying would slow down but then continue, one took a minute or so to actually start copying. With that one, I went to the Arch system and the clock had stopped. Once the file started going, the clock started up again. About ten minutes later Arch froze. Nothing worked and the HDD activity light was solid red.

In the Hardware log there were four EXT4-fs errors in sdc2 which is the Kingston SSD.

comm mount: bad orphan inode 5679112
comm mount: bad orphan inode 5771158
comm mount: bad orphan inode 5830888
comm mount: bad orphan inode 5822528

I did the journalctl from about when I started copying until it froze.

Re: Arch Freezing

Please don't copy and paste out of a pager, redirect the journal into a file or straight into a pastebin service.
