💥 WD SMR 硬碟重大缺陷曝光！NAS RAID 重建災難、性能暴跌、集體訴訟全面解析 💥
2020 年，Western Digital（WD）因在 WD Red NAS 硬碟 中悄悄採用 SMR（疊瓦式磁記錄） 技術，卻未明確告知消費者，導致大規模使用者資料損毀、RAID 重建失敗的災難。
📉 根據專業媒體 ServeTheHome 實測：
RAID 重建時間：SMR 高達 120 小時以上（CMR 約 24 小時）
隨機寫入性能：SMR 僅 0.3 MB/s，比 CMR 慢 75%+
這些問題讓 NAS 用戶面臨 性能崩潰、重建失敗與資料遺失 的嚴重風險。
📄 詳細解析（含法院文件與實測數據）：
👉 WD SMR 硬碟嚴重缺陷導致集體訴訟：NAS 性能災難與 RAID 重建失敗完全解析

⚠️ 請大家馬上檢查自己的 NAS 或桌上型硬碟！
如果你使用 WD Red、WD Blue、或同型號 SMR 機種，請立即備份資料 ⚡
預防資料遺失才是最好的防禦！

"… raw device nodes. Nothing in the system appears to check the underlying partition type when enabling swap on these devices, so if you plug in another device and things are renumbered then swapping will write nonsense over a different partition …
"I think I have filed bugs about all of these issues. It would be great if folks looking to improve the installer could consider some of them. …"
Nothing open for swap with the 'install' keyword:
