Yeah, a PSA of sorts: take whatever SSDs you have and use, and go to the
manufacturer's website (right *NOW* :) to check if they have a newer firmware,
or to ensure that you have the latest version. There are such horrible bugs
being found and fixed in those, that upgrading the firmware is absolutely *not*
the case of "if it's not broken, don't fix it". Also your SSD may gain niceties
such as a working TRIM support (that was sometimes disabled/broken in earlier
releases).
