Macbook battery went dead. Macbook runs slow. SSD failure?

Hi guys,

Recently my battery died. I do have terrible charging habits.

Shortly after that, my mac started running progressive slower. I have tried cleaning space/ safe booting, nothing seems to work.

I think the bad news are my SSD is failing. I will attach the image of my SSD speeds.

MacBook Pro 13", macOS 10.15

Macbook Air 2017 13" Hardware Issue A Macbook Air is running VERY slow. (called bad below) Apple logo screen can be 80 seconds or less then 10 seconds. After logging on, loading the profile is usually 45 seconds. I open the laptop and see the SSD has some green "stuff" on it. I have another working MB Air same model, so I switch around the SSD cards to narrow things down. So I assume the bad SSD is bad. Putting the "good" SSD in the Bad MB-Air computer and still runs very slow, so it is specific to that machine. Under further inspection, something has happened to one of the cells on her battery. Every diagnostic I run comes up with zero error. The problem is, sometimes the diagnostic wont complete because the computer just shuts down. If the computer lets the diagnostic complete, there are no issues. Ran a Memory test with MEMTEST86 and no errors. I tried booting without the battery attached to see if that was causing some boot problems. No still slow. Any advice? Thanks for your help! Sorry for the blurry pictures.

Macbook Pro dead slow after battery drain and update Hi all A1278 Macbook Pro, with 8GB or Ram and kingston SSD, High Sierra I believe. The laptop ran out of battery a couple of days ago. After charge, it was very slow to do anything, the spinning beach ball was showing up litterally after every click. At some point it asked me to download and install updates. I approved and let it do its thing hoping it might fix things too. After update, the system hang on the boot screen at the start of the progress bar for 12 hours with no progress. I looked the problem up and reset the SMC. Rebooted and still the same. I rebooted in safe mode and it has taken 9 hours to get to : NOTE: administrator is creating non-ejectable disk image I am not sure what to do, any advice is greatly appreciated.
