You should always have two, or preferably more copies of anything important. Otherwise, you are just tempting fate.
This, anything important should be backed up

There are no 100% reliable storage devices, but there are no 100% reliable ANYTHING.
Telling someone to stop using hibernation/sleep with Sandforce is slightly like blaming the victim of a rape for dressing provocatively. haha
Perhaps all partners using these controllers should place warnings in their manuals. Though we all know such a restriction would means LESS sales. Instead, consumers find out the hard way and come here to vent.
I actually like OCZ for the sheer entertainment value they alone provide.

groberts101,
Do you know if there ever will be a fix (or even if its possible) for 1st gen Sandforce controller to work with sleep/hybernate without it getting its panties in a twist eventually and panic locking? I still have my Corsair Force F115 with v2.4 fw which came back from RMA, so wondering what I can actually use it for
I assume the sf-2281 doesn't have such issues? Cause my Sandisk and Intel 520 are put to sleep few times a day.
No. Today, an HDD that worked well yesterday has a better chance of working well tomorrow than most SSDs. Intel SSDs, even, have up and bricked for some users. But, an HDD can also fail on the next reboot. Intel's 320 series is to a point where it appears to be on par w/ HDDs, though actual data on the subject is only available to Intel.Are there any reliable SSDs out there?
After putting together a WHS server about a year ago, I'm not sure how I ever lived without it. I have 7 SSDs in the house (3 Intel, 2 OCZ Agility 2, and 2 Samsungs) and just knowing they are all backed up automatically is real piece of mind. After the initial backups are made, further backups are incremental and very fast. The backups are also duplicated with drive extender. Having the server also allows you to keep all the media centralized, saving space (I use Serviio as the media server with WHS ver. 1).
Just wait until you get data corruption in the backup database rendering all of those client backups useless. Speaking from experience, do yourself a favor and keep an Acronis or other image of your machines in addition (or better yet in place of) the WHS backups.
Look on the bright side: some people still use floppies, Zips, and Jazs .
Well, for every new generation of SSDs you have to reset the clock and start fresh tracking reliability.
No.. it would be more like telling you're girlfriend not to hang out in bad neighborhood's when she's wearing that super short mini-skirt that you really dig.
........
Are you talking about all sandforce drives incl Intel ones?

Everest2 is proprietary, we can and will sell it
No one else has this, its fabbed by Marvel for OCZ...end of story, no more on this now, you have everything you need to know.
Ao1...no more fishing and what we regard as trouble causing on the forum....im asking you now to post else where, im not banning you at all, i just would rather you did not post here. If you have questions regards anything OCZ we have a PR dept you can talk too.
