Maybe has something to do with making assumptions about how the nand controller is going to allocate things across superpages but that is a stupid random guess and also I have no idea why it’s an OS issue but boy do they keep finding ways
os updates write large amount of data to disk at once. especially a highly bloated os like modern windows. whatever the trigger, it's still faulty nand controller. you can very well cooy a 20G file and see disk is corrupted.
That’s a good point on how the OS could be “causing” it. I don’t think my take was very likely after I thought about it for a while.
