Corsair Memory, one of top 10 memory vendors just announced that the company detected stability problems on 120GB Force Series 3 and is issuing a product recall.

ALL users should cease using the CSSD-F120GBG3-BK drive immediately, even if you have not experienced issues of stability.
Users may then either RETURN the drive to Corsair, at Corsair's expense, to be exchanged with a replacement drive that does meet specifications OR
Return the drive to their place of purchase.

According to the statement made by "yellowbeard" on company's forums, QA engineers "identified that a significant percentage of these drive do not perform to specifications. The solution will require changes to both the SSD firmware and the hardware components of the SSD itself."
