Correlation without causation was the caveat we applied last week to reports that the KB5063878 update for Windows 11 was nuking SSDs and HDDs. Now SSD controller maker Phison has reported back on an extensive investigation into the alleged issue. The outcome? Nothing to see here.
In a statement to WCCFTech, Phison said it had, "dedicated over 4,500 cumulative testing hours to the drives reported as potentially impacted and conducted more than 2,200 test cycles. We were unable to reproduce the reported issue, and no partners or customers have reported that the issue affected their drives at this time."
