How to test a SSD for errors?

Long story short I sold a brand new SSD to a person, the person claimed that the drive died after an hour of use (would no longer show in the boot menu). I received the drive back and looks to be in fully working condition, (I can see in windows, bios, and it even boots from his windows 8 attempt install). Is there a way to further test that the drive is in working condition? Thanks

Use the drive. Maybe at first with unimportant data.

However (considering what happened to the previous drive) I do not believe there is any way to predict when an SSD controller will fail or hit a firmware bug.
