“firmware issue that impacted certain SanDisk Extreme Pro 1TB, 2TB, and 4TB, SanDisk Extreme 4TB, and WD My Passport SSD 4TB portable SSDs”
I have a SanDisk Extreme 2TB SSD, but I’m not sure if this is one of the affected drives. Mine is not the ‘Pro’ version and doesn’t seem to be on this list. Is this SSD safe to continue using for serious storage?
Your drive is not one of the specific models indicated. As to being safe, that is the question everyone wants to know. Data storage is important to everyone, but this particularly impacts professional use like media companies and creators who transfer and work with huge files on a daily basis. If they are encountering problems now, will others suffer them later? Western Digital, who owns Sandisk, is not answering many questions or inspiring confidence at any level.
