I personally had my Macbook Air that I bought in August 2012 have its 128GB SSD fail on me this past August. The data was not recoverable and I had to get the SSD replaced by an Apple technician for free as my Air was still under warranty.

Fortunately, I was mostly backed up, but it is definitely aggravating to see a < 12 month old SSD fail.

Sorry, but SSDs have never had a good history of being reliable. I've been lucky, but I hear too many horror stories. Backup is essential.

No medium is reliable, and it's good you were backed up recently.
