A Bad Day FneuThe smaller die size of the SSD, the easier it will get damge...Reply
SSDs are fairly reliable, in terms of wear level. By the time they lose excessive amount of sectors, many HDDs would've head-crashed.
Now for firmwares, that depend on the vendors. -

Lol, Intel just discontinued their product (it means that there is no more updates/improvements for this product), you have nothing to worry about. The warranty isn't removed... -
