About this tag
SSD compatibility on Windows systems often involves issues with external drives not being recognized or internal NVMe SSDs causing system hangs, blue screens, or upgrade blocks. Common themes include Windows 11 24H2 blocking certain Western Digital and SanDisk NVMe SSDs (like the WD_BLACK SN770) during upgrade, leading to a "What needs your attention" message.
