Yiiikes. I’ll have to watch out for devices that contain WD storage in the future. I’ll be purposefully avoiding them from now on. https://www.theverge.com/23837513/western-digital-sandisk-ssd-corrupted-deleted-questions

WD refused to answer our questions about its self-wiping SanDisk SSDs

After several expensive SanDisk solid-state drives began catastrophically failing, Western Digital is still refusing to answer our questions.

@iaintshootinmis That’s a shame. I was a big fan of WD drives back in the day. But yikes.

@hal_pomeranz Yep, same here. But this is really inexcusable.

@IAintShootinMis @Hal Pomeranz @Zak Kaufman :1password: The rule is that one of Seagate or Western Digital is catestrophically broken and the other is the best. Pick whichever is not broken this year.

Good luck

@alrescha @silverwizard @iaintshootinmis @hal_pomeranz It’s more about the lack of response and continued sale of bad product than it is about the issue with the product to begin with.
