Windows 10 version 1803 isn’t compatible with Toshiba solid state drives, either

Posted on May 14th, 2018 at 07:33 woody Comment on the AskWoody Lounge

Last week we learned that Microsoft didn’t bother to test Win10 version 1803 on some of its Surface Pro (2017) laptops — if they had, they would’ve discovered that 1803 crashes the system entirely. Every Surface Pro (2017) with an Intel solid state drive crashes. Every. Single. One.

Now we’ve received official confirmation that Win10 1803 doesn’t work with Toshiba SSDs, either. Microsoft says they “may experience degraded battery life” but I’m seeing reports that they turn hot as a fiddle in Devil Went Down to Georgia. (That’s my favorite version.)

Thx to Wazhai.

If you’re trying to really delete data from a Flash-based SSD drive, or even a USB drive, you’re in for some interesting times.
