Update: I believe this may not be a reliable solution. From what I've read the max operating temperature is 185F for the toshiba OEM disk. The SSD I put in failed within a week or two. I got a replacement sent out and I was hoping it was a bad disk.

With the replacement installed after an evening of cruising around, the disk was reporting it was operating at a max of 75C - which is 5C over the "max operating temperature". I am going to put the OEM disk back in for now.

A search for possible options for the disk weren't promising. The actual process to replace/upgrade the disk is simple enough. But the disk you put in needs to be comfortable in high temperatures.
