I have ~200 servers now with SSD drives, all in single-drive configuration, since the servers are clustered. So far I've lost a couple of drives in 5 years. The speed is phenomenal, but when one decides to go, it just goes. Lights out, gave over - there's no warning like with a mech drive. There are tools available to determine the health of the drive, but I haven't played with them yet.
