When shutting down the computer after performing a Memtest (latest version) some SMART Values of the HDD/SSD might increase and indicate an "unexpected power loss".
I tested this on 3 different systems. With 3 different SSD/HDDS The following values increased after shutting down the system via Memtest
On a Samsung SSD the Raw Value "EB - POR Recovery Count" did increase after shutting down the System (using the Option within Memtest).
On a Crucial SSD the Raw Value of "AE - Unexpected Power Loss" increased.
and on a Toshiba HDD the Raw Value "C0 - Power-off Retract count" increased.
I just wanted to report that in case that isn't "normal".
