Hello Tedtoal,
I recently had the same problem you describe that got you to apple support to exchange your hard disk. The second time it happened to you did you exchanged your HD again?
I have a one week old macbook pro retina 13 inches with standard specification. I just finished doing a clean install ( my first machintosh computer) with all the aupdates available and this bug happened to me on the first document I created. Of course I have all the triggers: time capsule, word 11 and the famous document which had one picture inserted (roughly 250kb of size) and two pages lenght but occupied 40mb! First i was asked to change names in order to save it, then the system crashed and disk utiliy told me to restart my laptop and run disk utility from there in order to repair the HD. It did repair it.
I am asking for your help based on your previous experience. Does my SSD have any sort of scar from this event? Was it fully repaired with no consequences wathsoever (like a new out of the box SSD)? Is it an ill SSD? Should it be adviceable to go to an apple store to further check it?
Thank you in advance!
This is what it showed:
