Overview
- Phison says potentially affected controllers are under review and confirms coordination with Microsoft on diagnosis and remediation.
- Microsoft has not issued a detailed public acknowledgment, but BleepingComputer reports the company is working on a fix.
- Phison says a falsified document blaming its controllers is circulating and says it has taken legal action while stressing the issue spans multiple vendors and even some HDDs.
- Community testing reports failures after roughly 50GB of continuous writes, with higher incidence on fuller drives and some DRAM-less models, leading to vanishing drives and possible data corruption.
- User reports name models from SanDisk, Corsair, Maxio, and KIOXIA, and outlets advise backing up data and avoiding large or rapid consecutive writes until a verified fix is released.
