I have had 2 OCZ drives fail; a core and a vertex 2. Both replaced under
warranty. You should look at return rates:

rather than relying on anecdotal evidence.

I never knew such problems existed.
I bought OCZ before competing brands existed.
And they are still going very strong.

The charts are a little old - but I ordered Samsung any way - its a little quicker.
Thanks.
