I ran the SSD and it was fine again.

I ran the SSD data and got the exact same errors I got the first two times I ran them not in recovery. What does that tell you, if anything?

I tells me soemthing that is published in Apple documents and has been true since Mac OS X 10.0 Public Beta is still valid. Running Disk Utility > First Aid against the current boot drive is prone to false error reports. No errors were found when you were booted from the Recovery Drive so your volumes are fine.

NOTE: the same tendency to false error reporting when checking the current boot drive is true of all volume repair utilities.

If we knew what it was we were doing, it wouldn't be called research, would it?
