I've done similar over the last three years and had good luck with the Crucial drives. However if you take a look at the Linux Kernel patch they link to (search for "don't properly handle queued TRIM"):

There are Crucial SSDs on the list. I'm going to be keeping a closer eye on them now.
Yeah I saw that - although that's the older, now discontinued series that has a different controller and doesn't show the same consistent performance as the newer M600 drives.
