SanDisk faces major issues with SSD drives

Disks erase stored data

Several sources report that Western Digital's external SanDisk Extreme SSD drives sometimes delete the files stored on them, which is obviously very concerning.

Western Digital has confirmed that there is a problem with the 4TB SanDisk Extreme SSD and has posted an update that they say will solve the problem. However, Art Technica reports that even the 2TB version of the drives appears to have been affected by the same problem, where files are inexplicably deleted from the drives. So far, there is no update available for the 2TB version of the drives.

It also seems that SanDisk has continued to sell the drives despite knowing that there are problems with them, which has led some experts to advise consumers not to buy SanDisk Extreme SSD drives for the time being.
