This is clickbait. Having hibernation and writing 32GB of RAM to the SSD are not "Windows 11", but standard behavior on any OS with hibernation.

In my experience, the fragility and unreliably of M.2 and SSD has been greatly overstated.

    Windows could be considered uniquely responsible here since on a desktop you might think you're safe from this if you always shut it down properly after use. Yet "fast startup" is a thing. It's a questionable default that should be revisited.
