March 14, 20233 yr I'll be straight up with ya, when it came to business systems I was really hesitant to move to SSDs, especially in servers. The fact that every time you write to it and delete you lose a little of the life of the drive really bugged me out. I mean yeah they are much faster but the old mechanical spinning disks you use for enterprise level stuff just worked until they didn't. Now, after years of working with them I have jumped on board and will use them but man that was like pulling chicken teeth at first. Edit Ok so after looking at their data I saw that 1) they are only using them as boot/OS drives and not storage drives for which they still rely on the good ole spinning disk drives. and 2) a lot of the drives they listed are limited usage drives compared to the rest. While decent info it seems a tad limited. I'd like to see some numbers when they go to SSDs in storage arrays. Those are the ones that get the workout not the OS drives.
