No, and for numerous reasons. Capacitors are relatively large and bulky. The specifications for SSD size doesn't leave a lot of room, and the type of surface mount electrostatic capacitors which would be needed are both expensive and take up a lot of space.
Even in the enterprise market, M2 form factor SSDs rarely have these capacitors, because they don't really help. They are more common on PCIE-card devices.
The on-disk/flash format that these drives use has a journaling system much like modern filesystems do, so they know if blocks were not fully written. This feature alone almost completely negates any need for
I have committed patches and code to UBIFS and I am very familiar with how modern flash filesystems work at the hardware level. Backup caps are just not really needed.
