that the crucial data is far from safe.

YYEEEAAAAHHH!!!!]]>May 5th 2010 12:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/05/crucial-issues-realssd-c300-firmware-fix-bricks-more-drives/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/05/crucial-issues-realssd-c300-firmware-fix-bricks-more-drives/It was crucial that I add my response... so here it is. :)

Anyway, I feel sorry for anyone who has a bricked drive. When a person pays hundreds of bucks for a SSD, getting a cheap HDD for backing it up should be a no-brainer. Keeping the data on a drive safe should be the number one goal of drive manufacturers. I have a 64GB Crucial SSD at home that I use for gaming (load times are awesome), and I'm happy to report no problems with it, but it's using an Indilinx controller.]]>May 5th 2010 1:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/05/crucial-issues-realssd-c300-firmware-fix-bricks-more-drives/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/05/crucial-issues-realssd-c300-firmware-fix-bricks-more-drives/

I personally can't fault their RMA process though, my M225 died a couple of months ago, I had a shiny new drive within 3 working days of filing the RMA. The 5-year warranty is also comforting.]]>May 5th 2010 11:43AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/05/crucial-issues-realssd-c300-firmware-fix-bricks-more-drives/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/05/crucial-issues-realssd-c300-firmware-fix-bricks-more-drives/You fail if you get what I did there.]]>May 5th 2010 11:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/05/crucial-issues-realssd-c300-firmware-fix-bricks-more-drives/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/05/crucial-issues-realssd-c300-firmware-fix-bricks-more-drives/May 5th 2010 11:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/05/crucial-issues-realssd-c300-firmware-fix-bricks-more-drives/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/05/crucial-issues-realssd-c300-firmware-fix-bricks-more-drives/May 5th 2010 12:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/05/crucial-issues-realssd-c300-firmware-fix-bricks-more-drives/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/05/crucial-issues-realssd-c300-firmware-fix-bricks-more-drives/May 5th 2010 12:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/05/crucial-issues-realssd-c300-firmware-fix-bricks-more-drives/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/05/crucial-issues-realssd-c300-firmware-fix-bricks-more-drives/May 5th 2010 3:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/05/crucial-issues-realssd-c300-firmware-fix-bricks-more-drives/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/05/crucial-issues-realssd-c300-firmware-fix-bricks-more-drives/May 5th 2010 12:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/05/crucial-issues-realssd-c300-firmware-fix-bricks-more-drives/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/05/crucial-issues-realssd-c300-firmware-fix-bricks-more-drives/New Features: Bricking
