My anecdotal evidence of two SSDs is 50/50 - that one (64GB) has lasted 8 months and is still alive. The other (128GB) lasted 2 months and "died a horrid lethal death of the fatal kind that one doesn't recover from" - i.e. it spews file-system and ATA errors constantly into the syslog/dmesg. I would have claimed on the warranty but I'd thrown the receipt away. I guess it's a case of YMMV. -- Daniel Llewellyn
