UMC Advisory Notice: SSD Issues on Windows 24H2

 We issued a warning regarding about Phison SSD failures. On August 21, mind12, a administrator of Legion server on Discord reported that Windows 11 24H2 may cause SSD failure that led to unstable versions called KB5063878 update.

mind12 said:

Microsoft Windows 11 24H2 Update (KB5063878 ) May Cause SSD Failures

Either skip the update for now or avoid sustained writes!

(As of 20th August there is no fix!)

"Community testing has identified a reproducible pattern in which certain SSDs, when running sustained sequential writes of approximately 50 GB, become inaccessible and display unreadable SMART telemetry. 

Follow-up analysis and vendor feedback to date primarily point to solid-state drives, although conclusions about traditional spinning hard disk drives remain unconfirmed."

"Microsoft and SSD vendors are investigating and have not yet published a definitive root-cause report.

Until vendors and Microsoft publish formal guidance, users with SSDs should back up important data, 

avoid long sequential transfers on systems updated to KB5063878, 

and monitor vendor and Microsoft advisories for SSD-specific firmware, driver, or OS fixes."
