SSD Lockup

Hello all, I am new to this community and have a question which I cannot find any answer. I have an Intel SSD 160mb 320 series which has my main System C drive. Every now and then (Daily) it decides to stop writing my incremental Acronis backups. The only way to fix this is to open my tower, unplug the power on the SSD, wait around 30 seconds, and then replug it...Then it can write again until the next time...This ussue has been going on for years!

Not fun to open the tower like that. My firmware is up to date and bios also, so I am clueless to what could be going on. Its obvious to me that the SSD is to blame as I have tried other image backup softwares and get the same lockups. a check disk on the SSD comes up with no errors.
