Honestly guys,

most people really have no long-term experiences with flash memory, be it SSD
or other forms of.
I can tell you from continously using simple CF-Cards as harddisks for about 5
years that _none_ ever got corrupted. Not a single one in 5 years. Taking into
account that CF is really no big hit in technology most people really only
talking about fearing the black man when talking about flash disks of any kind.
Please stop FUD and simply buy acceptable vendors.
If you want to see real trouble then buy W* green IT 2 TB. I crashed 5 in a row
within the first 3 months of usage.
