I had a drive exactly like this, but mine was a 4TB Extreme not a pro. Replaced it with a different one with a better firmware and for the last 6 or so weeks, perfectly fine. The last one died within 5 days. Replaced the data, 5 days later, dead. Sent it back. I don't know if that's an older, or newer drive but either way it's not my friend. This one at least is behaving itself.

Buyer beware: some SanDisk Extreme SSDs are wiping people’s data
Western Digital is de facto admitting that its SanDisk Extreme Pro SSDs have been vulnerable to a massive glitch that can wipe all your data — by issuing a firmware update for only one of the reportedly affected models.Sean Hollister (The Verge)
