Nothing that would pass deep scrutiny. Just our experience running SSDs in almost every server at Stack. We've only had one mass failure of drives. That was when 5/8 Samsung drives died around the same time in our packet capture box. The remaining 3 are still alive, although we don't really use them.

We have only had two Intel drives die on us. I'm interested (well academically, not professionally) if they will die at the same time or keep dropping off one at a time.

We tend to retire the machines or the drives in them before they fail.
