I bought one in december, already dead two months after... I think I had no luck. My replacement works since one month... What I do : - change the IO scheduler, like this : echo noop > /sys/block/sda/queue/scheduler - mount noatime or relatime the filesystems Ah ! One problem with my drive/bios : I can't update the firmware, it's locked. It's the BIOS's fault... Look here for a firmware updater for Linux : http://www.ocztechnologyforum.com/forum/showthread.php?82289-1st-Public-beta-test-of-OCZ-Sandforce-Linux-based-firmware-upddate-tool
