http://www.networkcomputing.com/deduplication/ssd-poised-to-move-into-the-da ta-center.php Another issue is reliability. SSDs have emerged from the consumer market, where the workload and reliability requirements are low compared to those with enterprise systems. The new drives wear out faster than HDD drives, which creates a couple of problems. First, companies need sophisticated management tools that will be proactive and take steps to ensure that a drive problem will not knock all of their applications offline. Also, the additional maintenance requirements may possibly increase a firm's manpower requirements and hardware costs.

We have a larger one I put in our mail server and its not a fast machine but the performance of the SSD made up for it then some. Just a thought... Thought about that in past. We currently are running a 500GB drive. Thought about this SSD. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820139400 I have heard SSD drives have a limit on write access though. Something about so many writes to disk and there worn out. I am doing a lot of writes. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- WISPA Wants You!
