GoKawiilAMD releases driver update fixing SSD wear-out bug in Radeon GPUs
AMD released Adrenalin Edition 26.11.1 to fix a driver flaw in its AMD External Events Client Module and Utility that caused excessive background writes to solid-state drives on Radeon RX 7000 series GPUs and newer. Reports from Neowin and Tom's Hardware found the affected processes, atieclxx.exe and atiesrxx.exe, writing as much as 432GB to disk in 24 hours even while systems were idle.
