I have had two MacBook Airs over the years.  Have never had any issue with the 
SSDs in there.  My experience with them has been so positive, I just purchased 
3 Samsung 840 Pros 512GB.  I have a RAID of two in a tower and one in a mini.  
They have single handedly extended the life of my tower.  It feels like a new 
computer with tons of speed. 

We also have SSDs in our office servers.  They have been running for a few 
years now 24/7 with zero issues.  We have Crucial drives in them.

Now, with all of that in mind, we are fanatical about backing up data.  We have 
numerous drives in the office to hold back ups.  We favor ChronoSync for the in 
office backups.  We also use CrashPlan to backup our data offsite.  We have an 
unlimited plan that costs us only $4/m.
