This paper (2013) is a good read for everyone using (Enterprise) SSDs in their facilities.
https://www.usenix.org/system/files/conference/fast13/fast13-final80.pdf

Summary of the findings:
http://www.zdnet.com/how-ssd-power-faults-scramble-your-data-7000011979/

We use Intel SSDs in different Raid configurations for our StorNext Metadata - haven't
experienced these problems so far - even with 2 major power outages last year (graceful shutdown was possible while UPS kicked in)

Anyone having weird SSDs issues, maybe data loss after power faults?

Cheers
Jatha
