← ScienceWhich risk increases when operating a solid-state drive near its specified maximum sustained write current?
A)Increased data corruption events occur✓
B)Abrupt drive capacity fragmentation begins
C)Run-time input latency greatly increases
D)Thermal runaway accelerates exponentially
💡 Explanation
Increased current causes random bit flips during Program/Erase cycles, impacting data integrity, because of the degradation of the gate oxide in flash memory cells. This is charge trapping rather than thermal runaway, therefore the outcome is more frequently data corruption events and system unreliability.
