We've had several SSD failures in Arista devices, I can only assume a bad batch 
of SSDs because they were all in a batch of routers ordered and delivered 
together.

For us the SSDs dropped into RO mode.

When this happens there are syslog messages to let you know, and if you drop 
into a BASH shell you can see the issue, but none of the EOS show commands show 
the problem:

show file systems  -> shows all FS as rw
show system health storage  -> shows "OK"

Cheers,
James.
