     @nova I've used a dozen or more of this model of drives in embedded Linux applications (computer vision, storing bursts of images) and none have failed yet, with something on the order of a terabyte worth of images, so that's good. Nothing close to the stated life, though it's enough to say they are acting like reliable devices.

     @nova These are great, super reliable, had them running in some ESX machines at work for a good few years (the 860 version anyway) :D Was a bit concerned those old Dell PERC controllers didn't support SSD TRIM but it hasn't presented any issues.

     @nova @pearofdoom I have around 30 Samsung drives that have been purchased for systems over the past 5 years. So far 1 failure that Samsung replaced. They tend to be good quality drives. Far more reliable than Kingston or WD in from what I have seen.
