Ah, understood, and in that case I agree with you, if an SSD fails trying to do a constant write of 60GB it’s a pretty shit SSD. But it does seem like something weird is happening if these failures are only occurring with this windows update. Like someone with a fiber connection, one of these SSDs, and a new steam game purchase needing 110GB of storage would also have encountered this failure, if it was purely the SSD, since it didn’t occur before the update, and isn’t occurring on linux
