TheSteven Posted May 16, 2024 Posted May 16, 2024 Don't know if that's still the case but these particular drives were (upto 9 months ago) having a high per centage failure rate. https://www.tomshardware.com/news/sandisk-extreme-pro-failures-are-due-to-design-flaw https://www.reddit.com/r/hardware/comments/15kx1k2/the_verge_we_just_lost_3tb_of_data_on_a_sandisk/ https://www.reddit.com/r/editors/comments/10syawa/a_warning_about_sandisk_extreme_pro_ssds/ Western Digital has denied there is an issue and is getting sued... https://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/sandisk-ssd-firmware-fix-fails-hardware-havoc-revealed/ 1 1
