What the heck is this Intel DC P4500 Series 8TB SSD marked as SSDPEDKX080T7

That P4500 was the moment I lost trust in Intel NAND-based SSDs.

  • Intel never properly fixed that situation or properly discribed what was going on.

  • Why am I sure it was Intel’s fault? They exchanged the P4500 for new P4510 that showed the exact same behavior and then opted to completely refund my SSDs since they couldn’t see a firmware fix coming for these models.
