The Sandforce problem was with the 2281 version. Apparently there was some AES-256 encryption routine that didn't function properly and it was impossible to update it with replacement firmware. I think most consumer users use 128 bit encryption features in browsers, so it probably won't affect people outside of enterprise systems. Unfortunately for Sandforce, a lot of vendors used this version so it became a stain on their reputation. I don't know much beyond this, but in my opinion it's not an advantage to avoid Sandforce controller SSD's for the consumer market.
