Windows 10: Window's 10 update BSOD with clean Storage Devices

Every time I try installing Win 10 updates my computer goes to BSOD. I've been able to avoid the problem by rolling back to a previous version of Win 10 and just pausing updates as they came. Today I decided to update, but still BSOD. I formatted not quick format all my storage devices and reinstalled Win 10 onto my SSD. I tried updating again with empty HHD and SSD and still BSOD. This is the fourth time I reinstall win10 after again formatting my storage devices. Any advice as to what to fix? I will also post my event finder results in case someone can make sense to them. Thank you.

storage problem with windows 10 updates

Hi Xiaodung,

The troubleshooting steps that we will be providing should be based on the device that you are using. For better assistance, we would like to clarify some information:

• What device and Windows version are you using?
• Just to verify, do you just want to clean up your storage space and not upgrade/update to Windows 10?

Regards.

 

Update to increase the maximum transfer size of USB storage devices in Windows 7...

This is an Microsoft Windows 7 or Server 2008 R2 update that may improve performance of USB transfers. Now they do say, "for some":

How? Well per Microsoft:

Now, you do need to read the Hotfix article, here > An update to increase the maximum transfer size of USB storage devices in Windows 7 or in Windows Server 2008 R2

Now, after you apply this hotfix, you will need to do some registry editing.
So, back up your registry before proceeding. And, also, you do this at your own risk; as always... anything can go wrong at anytime, even in the most perfect circumstances.

This registry edit is, also, covered in the hotfix:

After you install this update, to increase the maximum transfer size of USB storage devices, follow these steps:
‪1.‬Click Start, type regedit in the Start Search box, and then press Enter.
‪2.‬Locate and then click the following registry subkey:
‪3.‬HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\usbstor\VVVV PPPP
‪4.‬Click Edit, point to New, and then click DWORDValue.
‪5.‬Type MaximumTransferLength, and then press Enter.
‪6.‬Click Edit, and then click Modify.
‪7.‬In the Value data box, type a value to specify the maximum transfer size between 64KB and 2MB. For example, you select Decimal and type a value between 65535 (64K) and 2097120 (2M).
‪8.‬Exit Registry Editor.

Notes
VVVV represents device descriptor idVendor in hexadecimal.
PPPP represents device descriptor idProduct in hexadecimal.

To get this update, you will need to click the "View and Request Hotfix Downloads" at the top portion of the page. Follow the instructions, like, fill out the info and check the files you want to download. They will send an email to with the links.

Happy updating and may it improve your USB storage device's performance. *Smile
