Been running my M3 SSD for almost a good 1 year.
Just used my MBP this morning. Came back to it and it would not come back from standby.

Couple times trying to reboot, it would not.
Booted into safe mode, ran disk repair .
Got about 15% and then it crashed.

Fast forward now. Even when booted into Firewire target mode, my other laptop would not see the HD but would it was not mounted. I tried to mount it but it would not - so ran disk First Aid. It found errors, tried fixing - repair could not *repair* - hence would not mount disk.

I ended up doing a reformat, and Super Duper is slowing doing it's thing now that after the disk is reformatted, it will mount.

What would have caused this....
