It is possible as the 840 Pro is quite new and HD Sentinel has been around for awhile. It might not have an update for this SSD yet.

99% in a couple of days is NOT normal. Check that indexing is off. That's the first thing that will kill a ssd. I've been running my Intel for 8 months and it's still 100% life.
