So I just built my first ever PC, and personally I think it went really well, as it started and everything seems to be running fine, except my ssd, which windows is telling me is failing. I already submitted a support ticket to ocz, but I found out about Crystal Disk Info, and decided to try it out. Crystal Disk info says it's all good, which is a contradiction to what windows was saying. Should I still see if I can get a new ssd? or is the one I have okay since Crystal Disk info says it is?
Hard Drive is Failing...

Windows is probably reporting a failure due to the SMART system as fzabkar alluded to. The problem with one of the SMART checks failing is that you never really know whether your drive is dying or not. That drive might last another 10 years, or it might die next week. I would back up your data and RMA it just in case.

05 __0 __0 __0 000000000000 Accumulated Runtime Bad Blocks
I've seen this before. It appears that Windows has recognised that the normalised value of the Reallocated Sector Count is sitting at the same level as the threshold, namely 0. This would normally indicate a failure. However, this stupid SSD firmware departs from the accepted norm and instead reports the raw number of bad blocks in the Current value. A good SSD would normally report 100 for this value.
In short, Windows is mistaken, but it's the fault of the SSD, not Microsoft.
At least that's how it appears to me.

Here is the SMART report for an OCZ Vertex 450 (128GB):
http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?strip=1&q=cache:http://sourceforge.net/p/smartmontools/mailman/message/31616526/
It's Firmware Version is 1.0.
It also has a 0 value for attribute 5.
However, it's raw values all make sense whereas the SSD in this thread doesn't make any sense at all, at least not to me.
Power On Hours : 0 hours
Power On Count : -1030048701
Host Reads : 701609633 GB
Host Writes : 1396218853 GB
NAND Writes : 1225723590 GB
If this were my drive, I would watch the POH count and see how it changes after 1 hour, 1 minute, 1 second, etc.
I would also write a 1GB file to the drive and see how the Total Host Writes is affected.
