This morning, same ssd spewed a bunch of other errors when find ran over a kernel tree.. http://paste.fedoraproject.org/61189/38686344 in that case I did get a block number (the irony of the failing block # is not lost on me) As soon as the new one arrives, I'll try some destructive tests on the failing one. I'm just happy it's stayed alive long enough for me to get the data off it. When my Intel SSD failed earlier this year it was just a brick.
