Obviously this is dependant on a number of factors such as the IT market in your country, how wealthy the customers are in your area etc. Either way, I'm interested in what percentage of DR jobs you receive are for SSD drives?

There's so much talk about SSDs these days, yet I don't know of a single person who uses one, and have only heard of one SSD job at another company.

I see SSDs mainly on industrial and special app, rarely from common end users. For them it may be now 2 - 3 percent.

I have received around 15 SSD cases in the last 9 months. Some were logical problems, some damaged electrically.

In most cases clients did not realise they even had an SSD installed!

I've received about 4 in 1 year period.
I agree that most clients do not even know they have an SSD installed.
All of them were from notebooks for high management guys, small and powerfull.

From netbook and notebook here, both logical and electrical failures.

<5 in 18 months. Mostly logical issues. Haven't seen one in over 6 months now. Tend to get a lot of 1.8 microsata in high-end portable notebooks.

I am curious about the percentage of recoveries on the SSD drives that have come in for repair. I have heard from others its very low just trying to see how the current tools stand up in this arena currently.

I'm in the computer repair business looking into the DR business. I like this pole though. I live in west Michigan next to Grand Rapids. I see about 10 - 14 computers a week. I've been working on computers for over 2 years and I have yet to have the opportunity to play with a SSD. I look in the big laptops like Qosmio and Alienware right away for them, but their all sata still. I'll be eyeing this thread.
