Don't worry about it. Buy your SSD (Solid state Storage Device) and mount with the noatime option. Don't let someone scare you away from the 99.8% solution waiting for the 99.9% solution. As for "emulating a hard drive", its only slow relative to potential FLASH speeds. Its fast relative to hard drive speeds. Writing may not be as fast as a "real" HD, YMMV. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dke...@hiwaay.net ======================================================================== Whom computers would destroy, they must first drive mad. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
