1. Afaik, those SSDs have a three year warranty - and as long as you don't write a SSD to death, it lasts quite long (my Crucial C300/256GB bought 12/2009 is still in a top condition).
2. They do not mention, why it's behaving like this (!!!). They could just tell what kind of mistake they made, and you could at least understand why (although it remains annoying for those ones who own the drive).
3. "By disregarding this notification and not performing the recommended resolution, the customer accepts the risk of incurring future related errors."
Just combine those three withe the fact, that since the end of the 50s/beginning of the 60s some companies startet to make use of planned obsolescense, cause it helps to make more money.
If there's a firmware, that fixes it, then ok - But for me initially it smelled at least like that, which doesn't mean it must be like that.
Oh and as a physicist i can assure you that the Earth is a globe and not a disc. 🙂

its only a good kill switch if you can get the data off it to put it on a new drive.

No way to reset the count by editing firmware or whatever stores it?
