Bug Description
After a random period of time after a fresh boot, the system cache gets corrupted. This is shown by hdparm -T.
Before system cache corruption:
Timing cached reads: 1804 MB in 2.00 seconds = 902.88 MB/sec
After system cache corruption:
Timing cached reads: 258 MB in 2.00 seconds = 129.10 MB/sec
Either the system battery or the AC adaptor is not functioning correctly, the Dell bios at times indicates that the AC adaptor is not a valid Dell product, though it is. In any case, the battery does not charge, but remains at 0%.
