The real question would be why would you pay the extra and use an SSD?
My one and only reason is that HD add to the acoustic noise level. A
smaller but not less important reason would be power consumption.
In my LMS-machine OS sits on the SSD (Samsung SSD PB22-J MLC), without
swap, and /tmp sitting ram.
Code:
--------------------
devpts /dev/pts devpts defaults 0 0
shm /dev/shm tmpfs nodev,nosuid,size=1G 0 0
none /tmp tmpfs nodev,nosuid,size=2G,mode=1777 0 0
#LABEL=swap swap swap defaults 0
0
LABEL=root / ext4 defaults,noatime,nodiratime,discard 0
1
LABEL=boot /boot ext4 defaults,noatime,nodiratime,discard 0
3
LABEL=home /home ext4 defaults,noatime,nodiratime,discard 0
2
--------------------
The media files are on a RAID5 (HD) based LVM.
I did experiment with the log files on a tmpfs as well but ran in a
number weird boot problems so stopped doing that. Ofcourse
/opt/logitechmediaserver sits on the SSD so DB activity is fast and
noiseless.
The audio files are located on a RAID5 (HD) based lvm set which can
spin-down if not needed.
I would not worry about the SSD. You are not planning to write GBytes
of new data daily (are you?) only once most probably. The SSD most
likely will outlive the economic value of your system.
