​The incantation is here:

forum.crucial.com/t5/tkb/articleprintpage/tkb-id/ssd@tkb/article-id/32

and there are discussions like this one as well:

http://www.extremetech.com/computing/169124-the-mysteriously-disappearing-drive-are-power-outages-killing-your-ssds
​

I will try this a bit and if it doesn't work then I will accept that all my
cheap and nasty pen drives work fine and are bootable but the fancy new SSD
is dead.......

I will stick with hard drives.
