I have a 256gb g.skill titan drive that completely failed on me 2 days before a huge presentation. it completely went dead. osx crash hard and computer wouldn't boot up. complete loss of data.
the whole point of ssd is data security and integrity against some kind of impact. my laptop was never dropped. the drive never saw the light of day after it was installed. I was just working in my hotel and BAM the drive went dead.
I barely recovered from business presentation using some ad hoc slides to get by. so after returning home I send the drive back and they refused service - I was a couple days past the warranty.
needless to say I will never buy anything form g.skill again. Not just for their sucky products but also that they don't stand behind whatever they sell - which is arguably more important than the product itself.
Not a happy camper.
