Linux
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I’ve had this before, try a different kernel, like an LTS, if that fixes it, there’s likely a kernel parameter somewhere to fiddle with.
First, make sure your laptop bios is up to date. Updating should be a simple matter of downloading the naked bios file, put it on a fat32 stick, boot into bios and use the built-in flasher.
You could set up a winToUSB drive to run the WD firmware update tool.
Or, you could go through this. https://community.frame.work/t/western-digital-drive-update-guide-without-windows-wd-dashboard/20616
Thanks for this, I managed to get the firmware updated to 624361WD; hopefully it fixes the issue.
I have a zenbook as well (not the same model) and I only had problems with Windows. When coming back from suspension it would be hot and the screen had like white fog on the edges. I tried to fix it but with no success. Frustrated with that I decided to give Linux a try and never had that problem again.
I assume you changed the ssd, I didn't know that was possible, I thought it was soldered to the motherboard. Is it possible you received a faulty drive from WD?
It has a standard m.2 slot (I did a bunch of research to confirm before purchase), RAM is soldered down unfortunately.
I swapped the 1TB for a 4 as soon as I got it.
I hope it isn't faulty, I live in NZ and got it from Amazon in the US....a RMA is not something I'm keen on.
