(6) Kingston v100 SSDs - Crashed This Morning

[DJSupport]

My company has around a (100) HP 8440p laptops that we have put Kingston v100 64GB or 128GB. This morning, six users reported that they are getting the Non-System disk error upon booting. The drives are no longer recongnizable by that laptop or any other. At least 3 users claim that they installed Windows update and rebooted, and thats when it happened. This is somewhat of a huge crisis around here, and we really need to make sure it does not grow any larger.

In BIOS, we typically have it set to IDE Mode, but we have tried changing that as well as other BIOS drive settings with no luck.


Any Ideas?!?!

From your description, it's more likely the Windows Update that did the damage (are you running Win7? SP1, which just came out, is reported to be an excellent brickmaker) than the drives failing at the same time.

Got any laptops with HDDs? Did any of them fail?

Thanks for your response.
We have about 10 with HDDs, and none of those failed. However, we still have 80+ that are the 8440p w/ SSD that did not fail. We even tried applying all the latest updates to try to break them, and that did not work.

We use WSUS and have not released SP1.
