EDIT: Was just told that they've changed the design to use an mSATA drive. Thanks for the feedback so far and apologies for the moving target...
I'm looking for the most reliable SATA SSD in the 50GB to 64GB range. Don't care about speed, not overly concerned about price, just reliability. I'm focused on getting a drive that will have the least chance of random failure - the amount of data to be written per day is not that much, probably 120GB or less in four sessions on a given day.
I'm told the drive will be replaceable in advance of predicted failure so again I'm focusing on getting a drive that has the lowest chance of just crapping out due to factors other than the life of the memory cells.
Use will be approximately 80% write / 20% read.
This is for a custom built / proprietary data acquisition tool. When powered off it will be subject to some vibration but will be well packaged / mounted. During use it will be in a pretty normal environment, more or less like what a laptop sees with temps inside the box up to 90F.
