One of the developer machines had an error, further digging revealed hard disk warnings. The drive functions just fine, but was showing an error. Turns out this this particular drive is well beyond its design specification. There is no failed cells, no errors reading or writing, but the drive has 200% of amount of data written to it as designed. Kind of like if one has a car that goes 250,000 miles; the manufacture didn't expect nor design the car to go that far. Except in this case one gets a warning. FWIW in this case the drive in question is HP M.2 NVMe drive. I question HP's fuzzy match in calculating the endurance of the drive.
