Should we stick with v1 or v2? V1 is definitely more strongly worded than v2.

v1:
+**·SSDs·with·Power-Loss-Protection·(PLP)·are·recommended·for·good·performance.
+··Using·consumer·SSDs·is·discouraged.

vs v2:

+**·Enterprise·grade·SSDs·are·recommended·for·good·performance.·Check·for·power
+··loss·protection·(PLP)·to·avoid·using·consumer-grade·SSDs,·which·are·not
+··recommended.

Having PLP might correlate with having good performance, but it's not
the reason for good performance and good performance is not the reason
you want PLP.

Disagree, PLP is the biggest reason for good performance compared to
consumer SSDs and it's often the main reason people buy them, as one
can make consumer SSDs safe without PLP, it just gets damn slow.
