Cisco's USC servers and hyperconverted disks of the HyperFlex suite have been warned that the software can be dropped by means of software installed on the disc drive.
The notation "Drivers software problem when selecting Self-Encrypting Drives" is described in the notification. The registry contains 16 different disc SKUs that can cause multiple problems for UCS servers and HyperFlex.
Solid software "can be driven slowly, with a load that runs during a long idle time, which can lead to unrecoverable driver-level errors." UCS servers have an error reading machine.
HyperFlex drives control the driver into the blacklist. Cisco may discriminate against disk classes as part of a disc recovery effort.
When the cluster tries to fix the drive, it can "constantly be blacklisted, and this can often lead to engine shifts."
