If it was that, you could of still updated the firmware and got it working after it crapped out. That's the only wide-spread issue that effected the Crucial M4's that I ever saw.

@Rosco, the Prodigy cases are definitely already for LAN and mobility use... However lots of people complain that the feet/handles aren't sturdy enough for them. Case will wobble when it's just sitting there and I don't really trust the top handles to carry a fully loaded case.
