Thanks. (I had ass-u-me-d that unstable meant bleeding-edge only.)
I use UNetBootin with LinuxLive USB Creator as an alternative when I
want to force a FAT32 reformat. Either way I seem to have problems with

Exactly the same result - goes nicely until it shows the login prompt
whereupon the error message triplets start (doesn't even newline down
from the prompt so the first error message is offset somewhat).
Seems a bit strange that

Well, I used Windows to check the S.M.A.R.T. and all is good. Besides if
there were a connection problem, Windows 7 would be at best capriciously
unstable and other distros / live-cds would have disk access problems.
The unstable Nov 1 NixOS has the exact same problem and I even repeated
this
So did you try switching/reseating the cable? Perhaps put the drive on a
different port? It does seem to be hardware from search results.
It could be that Linux exercises the disk differently from Windows...
Of course it is odd that the Linux mint one works. It would be interesting
to see which
Following up, I came across this:

Could this be related to my problem?

Heh. I think I can answer that.
If OP's hybrid solid-state drive is like mine, it calls itself a

There's no web interface for nixos installations, if that's what you asked

Could you expand on that? A live-cd should not expect there to be a
prepared storage unit (preparing it would be a possible requirement of
the live-cd itself).
Further, as mentioned, the Linux Mint live-cd has no problem with the
