On any of the HPE Server platforms listed below, if the system is configured with certain NVME Solid State Drives (SSDs) running a firmware version prior to HPK5, the following issue can occur:After the drive space becomes full, and the drive is in an idle status for three days, the drive can potentially fail and cannot be accessed from that point forward.Note: This does not occur on drives running firmware version HPK5 (or later).Note: Once this issue occurs, it cannot be fixed by updating the firmware or sanitizing the drive under a brick situation.
