  • ALBUS-9392 - When a Sanitize Overwrite command is executed on drives connected to some storage controllers, the command is executed 16 times which is very long and risks bricking the drive. So SOW is not supported anymore on these controllers.
  • ALBUS-9450 - Fixing a problem where the SOW command would be caught in an eternal loop instead of failing.
  • ALBUS-9393 - Fixing an issue where drives processed in a workflow would not be erased due to an apparent lack of licenses.
  • ALBUS-9558 - Fixing an internal problem where a file could be closed twice.
    • This resulted in sporadic issues in case of erasing multiple drives with partitions.
  • ALBUS-9508 - Fixing a network booting issue where machines would not be able to boot.
    • Occurred mostly on servers.
  • ALBUS-9513 - Fixing a problem where leading zeroes in a custom field value would be trimmed.
  • ALBUS-8684 - Fixing a report issue where, if a drive would become offline and the erasure failed, the report would still display orange disclaimers and green messages around some erased areas.
  • ALBUS-8918 - Fixing an issue where issuing a firmware command on an Intel Optane NVMe would freeze the user interface.
  • ALBUS-9376 - Fixing a rare case where the drive progress bar would not turn red in case of a failure.
  • ALBUS-9490 - Fixing a problem where collecting a crash report did not always work.
  • ALBUS-9446 - Fixing an issue where HP EliteBook 850 G8 could not get a dynamic IP address.
  • ALBUS-9504, ALBUS-9437, ALBUS-9443, ALBUS-9462 - Fixing several regression issues where the touchpad support stopped working on e.g., HP G7 and HP G8 laptops (EliteBook, ProBook) or Intel 11th generation laptops.
  • ALBUS-8038, ALBUS-9432 - Fixing several issues where the Wi-Fi adapter support did not work on e.g., Realtek RTL8822CE / RTL8821CE / RTL8822BE.

    • Depending on the screen resolution, the drives will always be shown in two columns (higher resolutions) or in one column (lower resolutions).
  • ALBUS-9378 - Fixing the erasure on 4TB Seagate Backup Plus (USB) disks, it was failing during the post-erasure capacity check.
  • ALBUS-9436 - Fixing a booting problem on some laptops equipped with Intel 11th generation CPUs.
