Pirate RPG game is secretly looting your SSD lifespan — new Windrose patch promises smoother sailing and addresses excessive disk writing
The Windrose RPG game has been criticized for excessively writing to SSDs, potentially shortening their lifespan. The game's new patch aims to reduce disk usage significantly, addressing the issue of up to 108GB per hour being written to SSDs. Comparisons with other games like Enshrouded and Valheim show Windrose's disproportionate SSD resource consumption. The game's high storage demand is attributed to its save system design, which has been adjusted in the latest patch to improve write speeds by 60-75%. Players are advised to update to the latest version to mitigate potential SSD wear and tear.
