Ah, OCZ.  OCZ brought (cheap) SSDs to the masses,
but their failure rates soured a lot of people on SSDs.
The anecdotal reports were that with some models
of OCZ SSDs you were better off redirecting all writes
to /dev/null (at least then you knew the bits were
unrecoverable), with failure rates or their petrol and
octane models reported to be above 30%.  But
specific models do vary (just like not all Deskstars
were Deathstars), and their more recent models
have a better rep (apparently after their bankruptcy
and purchase by Toshiba).
