Considering the fact that it is a first gen, still runs, still hasen't degraded performance, and rarely acts up I'd say it is still a great drive. Just for the record, I have had more problems with mechanical OS drives in the past than I have with this single SSD I've had for years. Nobody is ever saying it is the most stable storage medium, but it is the fastest and its speed makes up for anything that might "go wrong".
Also, this little problem was probably my fault as I thought I shut my computer down instead of putting it to sleep and when it didn't boot just flipped the PSU switch. This caused it to corrupt making this my fault and not the SSD's fault (or rather mine and Windows).
