    The complaint is seeking class-action certification on behalf of people who bought a 500GB, 1TB, 2TB, or 4TB SanDisk Extreme Pro, SanDisk Extreme, or Western Digital My Passport SSD that was “designed, manufactured, distributed, promoted and/or sold” since January 2023.

    Looks like this is for people who’ve purchased the drives since January 2023. So does it not affect people from before?

      Found a PDF of the complaint from another article, which says “since at least January 2023” on page 15, so, take that as you will.

        I wonder if that suggests that hardware made prior to that data doesn’t suffer from the same flaws? Or if it’s just an arbitrary cut off they decided on for the affected customers they would include in the lawsuit.
