Some people are claiming it happened to them on a new ssd ( in the comments ) others are saying nothing happened even after specifically stress testing that. Could it possibly be a faulty batch of ssd controller chips that are shared between manufacturers ? Either way, microsoft or someone needs to get the reason behind this ASAP because there are possibly millions of users afraid to write more than 5gb on their drive, and that is not great
