Reminder that SanDisk didn't do a recall. Even after reports of failure for a year.

They STILL didn't do a recall.

I think the only way they’ll ever do one is if a court forces them to.

Not only did they NOT do a recall, they also did NOT execute any kind of customer outreach program to advise about the very real possibility of data loss. And then to just shit all over everyone, they put all the affected products on sale with deep discounts - presumably to sell them as fast as possible before the bad bress became more widely heard.
