> Are GCE's SSDs particularly error prone?

Yes, incredibly error prone. Bad sector reads were observed at an alarming rate over a short period - well beyond what is expected if you were to just buy an enterprise nvme and slap it into a server.




That's quite an indictment of GCP if their Local SSD's reliability is that bad.
