1 out of 5 eggs Failed after 4 months, even with current firmware 10/30/2011

This review is from: Kingston SSDNow V100 2.5" 128GB SATA II Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) SV100S2/128GZ

Pros:

Exceptional capacity per $ (with hefty rebate)

Cons:

Died after 4 months.
Symptoms:
* BIOS would not recognize the drive
* Long delay in BIOS drive search (timeout) before BIOS gave up and moved on to detecting other drives.

Came shipped with current firmware which was supposed to address reliability problems

Overall Review:

Kingston was quick to pay the rebate
Kingston was quick to replace the drive when it failed
Kingston insists on signature for delivery, so I had to go pick up the replacement at a FedEx facility
