The drive arrived today, and it's pretty abused. ~53% life left. This is fine to me, since this drive will not get a lot of writes from me, anyway.
My current Silicon Power MLC SSD's life left is 32%. 😏
Anyway, it also sorely needed a firmware update. This fixes the following:
- issue where the solid-state drive (SSD) does not resume from low-power mode
- issue where the system fails to boot when it is not turned on for a long period

- Improved the shock handling capability of the hard drive in power-on state.
