"More than one user said the update crushed the performance of their laptop's Adata XPG SX8200 Pro 1TB SSD; it appears that the problem is limited to this model of Adata SSD "

hmmm......Windows, or ADATA?

As is the case with every operating system update, in the history of ever.

The only issue I for sure know I have had is the Local Security Authority aspect.
I am not super crazy about this "Bing Discover" bubble in Edge either. I expect that, based on feedback I have seen various places online, that they may end up making it optional.

hmm maybe ill reboot in few weeks
 
FWIW, I have that update on both my Win 11 systems, with no discernible problems.

Then again, I have no ADATA drives...:unsure:
XPG is reported aswell, but you might want to consider checking eventviewer, there are multiple reports on reddit that after this update security application (tpm) works whenever it feels like
Faulting application name: SecurityHealthService.exe, version: 10.0.22621.900, time stamp: 0x45a7fb3f

Yeah, weird that they singled out ADATA. The fact that Microsoft is fixing it tells me that it's a Microsoft issue, not ADATA's.

Microsoft already found the reason for one of the issues and is working on an update. Not sure if this is just the ADATA thing or everything.

I was looking at a kernel memory dump a few days ago. trying to figure out some problem with a ssd. The internal logs for the storage controller showed that the interface was being paused and resumed 125 times a second. No errors in the log. Just a pause and resume over and over. I figured it had to do with bad amd power driver update from microsoft.

An update they pushed out in Feb didn't insist on being installed by me. It sat in the top section and let me ignore it until sometime last week when I noticed it hadn't installed yet.

MY PC is up to date according to WIndows update, Apart from a weird case where I ran the update, - restarted PC and on shutdown, it wanted to run it again. I just shut PC off, it hasn't repeated that again - everything is fine.

After all this time and trying updating windows 11 to latest, troubleshooting, clean install windows and searching the web for a solution I came across a suggestion that deleting - usn journal - may help resolve some ssd / nvme performance issues, and I was completely desperate, so I gave it a shot.


using the command ( fsutil usn deletejournal /d c: ) described in the above page, I deleted the journal, nothing appeared to happen, ran some tests, the file copy speed seemed to got a little worse even than before.
After few days, I needed to copy some files, and to my surprise the copy speed was -normal- and the problem gone.
Continued my tests until today (copied over 80 GB) and the speed was great.
I am not an IT specialist, but after some extra reading I found out that the -usn journal- deleting process can take some time and will continue throughout several reboots in some cases.

So, if anyone is still having this issue, this -maybe- the solution, again I am NOT an IT specialist, I just posted what I tried to solve the issue, please search and ask some experts before resorting to this method.
