Amazing. He suggested you definitely reliable drive (Samsung). Reliable in
my boot too. You ask his opinion about yet another Corsair. One by Corsair
failed on you already. So, you should have better knowledge about
Corsair's SSD reliability, right?

Sorry to sound sour, it just amuses me how people keep buying things made
by the same company whose products already failed on them. This is what
creates the problem: keeps companies manufacturing bad hardware exist.
