's post above is a very important post.
I am now beginning to reconsider my recommendation, given that Crucial have started to mess around with the internals of different batches over time.
If you buy this drive - it is important to update the firmware before anything else.
Secondly - check back every few months, for any update.
Lastly (at least quarterly) run the check tools mentioned in the reddit post to undertake a health check/mot of the drive, to catch any deterioration early.
For anyone that doesn't now. When an SSD 'goes' it is extremely difficult (if not impossible) to retrieve any data on it. Even if you send it off to specialists.
Would appreciate the views of fellow members on the above. Always open to learning something new.
