IMO it might be better to use the smallest (50GB, maybe overprovisioned down to ~20GB) Vertex 2 Pro as slog and a much cheaper SSD (X25-M) as L2ARC.


No budget for this. Lucky if I can get the budget for the Vertex 2 Pro.
But if this sharing works (thanks to static wear leveling) it should be
sufficient to leave 10-20% space.


As Bob Friesenhahn said, you're assuming dynamic wear leveling but modern SSDs also use static wear leveling, so this problem doesn't exist. (Note that in this context the terms "dynamic" and "static" may not mean what you think they mean.)

Thanks for the term. Yes, this makes sense.
