No, we've been using an internal 4TB SSD for Cache & Gallery Stills, and an external 16TB SSD RAID drive for source files from current projects. Zero issues "so far." Everything is backed up to spinning RAIDs in the (unlikely) event of a crash or malfunction. But nothing gets dropped.
We tend to keep the drives on very secure cabinets or table tops where there's zero chance of them falling to the floor, but anything can happen. It'd be tough for the chips in an SSD to get damaged, but I could see cases where the chipset pins might partly or completely come out of the socket. I know of portable sound devices (Sound Devices and Zaxcom) where this happened, not from being dropped, but from being bumped around in portable shipping cases.
