Does Kioxia EXCERIA PLUS G4 need virtual memory tweaks for Destiny 2?

Right in the middle of a high-intensity raid, the game would just vanish and dump me back to the desktop. I noticed the storage controller load spiking with latency jumping between 1.2-2.8ms. I was honestly panicking, thinking I'd bought a lemon, and spent way too much time swapping M.2 slots only for the crashes to persist—it was an absolute slog. I finally used the manufacturer's tool to switch the write cache from Auto to Manual and disabled PCIe Power Management in the BIOS. My monitoring panel showed voltage fluctuations narrowing from 0.12-0.30V to 0.06-0.10V, and my FPS stabilized from a jumpy 42-62 to a steady 52-58. I tried lowering the clock speed at first, which just made loading times unbearable; it wasn't until I applied driver compensation and tweaked the sector alignment that the system stopped tripping. The chipset limits the total throughput, but it's rock steady now. System logs are clean, and the input lag is finally gone.
