Just be careful with an SSD. If you have a power-fail in the middle of
your process this sounds just like the scenario that will trash it. As
in, totally dead no recovery possible.

SSDs are great, but a power fail during write can take out the
controller. One dead, irrecoverable disk. And if you're hammering the
i/o you are VERY vulnerable.
