Yes, and I discussed this, but better than this is wear-leveling, which works
to avoid the issue, rather than reacting to failure. Combine this with some of
the advanced error correction, and you can greatly extend the lifetime of
(especially MLC-based) flash drives.
I have two questions,
1) Windows has TRIM support for ware-leveling. Does FreeBSD include
this? Looking at the wiki page for TRIM
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TRIM) it does not for 8.1, only for low
level formatting.
2) If 8.1 does not support ware-leveling, would it be recommend that we
not use SSD for pfSense until it does?
Just trying to figure out if decent SSD (Not Kingston) would be
recommend for pfSense.
Thanks,
Adam
