I can echo the -not going to wear it out doing any normal sort of things with your computer anytime soon.- bit. when I first got my SSDs, I too was under the impression of-extremely fragile/shortlived and followed every SSD tweak guide I could find, which wasn't really much of an issue with me because I have multiple drives to store data to, and got used to it very quickly. My 2 (seemingly unkillable from the testing happening here) X-25V drives stand right at this moment with:

I'm about to perform some testing on the Octane to see if I can resurect it.
Wish me luck.

You have mixed up the TiB written for the Turbo and the 830
So I took some time to see if I could resurrect the Octane.
Turns out, it wasn't necessary.
THE OCTANE LIVES!!
I'd very much like to take credit for this, that through my vast powers I was able to bring the dead back to life... but it is not so. It just crapped out and needed a power cycle. That is not very desirable behavior from a modern drive, but it's not like it happened once every 30 hours.
Apparently, it just pulled a [insert your own reference here] on me. It just... dropped out. Since I wasn't there to physically confirm this until a short while ago, testing is back on.

Other business --
OCZ Octane 128GB--
On the power cycle, POH reset but 6 new blocks went bad (while it was sleeping presumably).
OCZ Vertex Turbo 64GB --
Oh, and 1 of the 3 "Indilinx-Specific" SMART attributes have increased from 0 to 13 (attribute D3). I have no idea what this means, but I'd very much like to know.
Samsung 830 256GB --
The 830s CRC Error Count has increased to 2 (attribute C7)
-----------------
Actually, it looks like the Indilinx D3 attribute is SATA Error Count CRC. If the 830 and the VT are having the same problem at the same time, then it could be a host issue (??).

You just experienced the same as I did with the Kingston V+100, and it sucks every time it happens.

The Octane... (sigh.) I'm not sure that it dropped out. It seems to have crashed the three programs that make use of SMART info and it's instance of ASU. I had to shut down the rig after months and months of uptime. It's put like 1.5PiB though the controller since it's last reboot.
I have moved the Octane to another rig temporarily to see what the hell is going on.
That is very strange. It probably is not your rig but your are right about testing it in a nother rig to make sure.

Hmmm. I think the Octane is causing some BSoDs in my main system where it's now located. It's hard to be sure, but it seems like it's creating all sorts of random issues. I don't want to lay it all at the feet of the Octane, but it's looking like it.
Reallocations are up to 238 now, but MWI is still at 85.

very interesting, what are your thoughts on the octane, rapidly dying?
"Lurking" Since 1977
Jesus Saves, God Backs-Up *I come to the news section to ban people, not read complaints.*-[XC]GomelerDon't believe Squish, his hardware does control him!
God, I sure hope so.
I put it back in the e-rig ; It's crapped out again. I think everytime it hits a bad block it's gonna drop out.
And that's getting old already.
------------------------------------
Okay. The Octane is really, really dead now. It dropped out for the last time, and is now a lifeless hulk.

According to Anandtech it doesn't:
