2 possible issues:
1. Extreme static discharge. Unlikely.
2. Your fingers are liberally coated with a mix of peanut butter and mayo. Also unlikely.
"Hello ive read that...."

--------------------------------------
• Do not touch the gold connectors on your SSD.
• To minimize static electricity, touch your computer case before handling the SSD.
--------------------------------------
Exactly as mentioned. You don't want gunk from your fingers on the contacts. Skin oils, peanut butter, etc.
Over time, this may cause some corrosion.
And of course, the extreme static possibility.
This is nothing special with an SSD, but rather ALL electronics.
