Problematic SSD, possibly series errors

OCZ Technology Vertex 3 VTX3-25SAT3-120G internal 120GB SSD hard drive (6.3 cm (2.5 inches), SATA III) (Personal Computers)

Customer Review

Anticipation, the positives: The hard drive is fast.
At the SATA-2 controller is around 200 MB / s transfer rate normal. With SATA-3 400MB / s.

Unfortunately murky blue screens the pleasure if one uses the SSD as a system disk. The operating system switches off approximately 1-2 times a day for security reasons, because the system disk can not be read. Since me the 200 MB / s have bothered with SATA-2 anyway, I switched on Sandy Bridge Intel Z68 and SATA. 3
Problems, however, are the same here. The only remedy is a complete shutdown of the computer once or disconnect the drive from the mains.

Are you "Vertex 3 bluescreen" without quotes into Google, you get more than 500,000 hits.
In Manufacturers Forum, the problem is then halfheartedly pushed on Intel (aha, so will not work with the most widely used SATA controllers, what kind of quality control). In the same forum, the AMD users cry but just.
Countless Bios updates should help but bring anything. Just as the other clever tips, you may still trim at SATA port in the registry to disable etc.
In other SSD one has no such problems. By the way, not with the predecessor, the Vertex 2 not at least for me. The only had starting problems if it was cold.

The symptoms (disk can no longer initialize until power reset), rather indicates a controller error than to software. Other hard drives operate meanwhile continued as well.
