I wish I had read this forum and your post before opening my MBP again. Anyhow I removed the Sandisk Extreme II SSD and temporarily swaped it in an older Compaq laptop HDD drive bay - booting the 32bit version of the CD on the CompaqI was able to update to 1411. The wake from sleep lag is now gone after reinstall in MBP. This was quite a hassle but it worked.
Sandisk slap on the wrist for making a patch for Apple that apparently was tested on a non apple laptop.
