1,743 bad secors, I suspect you will be shopping for a new drive soon. they are stupid expensive right now thanks to the AI bubble. https://a.co/d/03oNaUtz Almost no on time on it? odd, like it has been sitting on a shelf. If it were a spinning drive I would have you run badblocks, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Badblocks But not sure about badblocks and flash. aparent and real blocks are not the same in flash storage like they are on a traditional drive. How is your internet connection? In the live session mount this drive and then download a few copies of the mint ISO to it, all 4 versions, then use the mint iso verificarion to to check the hashes, if the drive is corrumpting the files that will show it. or just flat fail to read.
