   OCZ Vertex Solid State Disks and Firmware Issues

It has come to our attention that some of our systems that we build with the OCZ Vertex Solid State Disk are having firmware issues.  Upgrading to the the newest firmware only prolonged the life of the drive by only a few uses.  Symptoms of this are data loss and total drive failure.  It is recommended to use a different SSD which uses a different controller such as the following:

OCZ Summit

Corsair SSD

Intel X25-M
