Thought this was an <a href="http://www.storagesearch.com/ssdmyths-endurance.html" target="_blank">interesting article</a>. If they are going to drive this idea of speed over reliability they are burning a big hole in the pocket of the hardware industry as a whole... if the industry are daft enough to jump on this market now. In the past the hardware industry has moved forward quickly because each step was practical and measured.Vomit wrote: when these things drop to about £100 each and their life span is a bit more reasonable i will change over to ssd, for now i will stick with the clock work stuff, except for the cache drive i use.
I think SSD is going to be side-stepped, if not then they are taking us back in time, in terms of reliability, to the days of the floppy disk.
Just be a nutter... life becomes much more exciting, and people won't expect anything more of you...

For my circumstances, and everyone's circumstances will be different, reinstalling the OS every now and again would be a horrendous nightmare. I have a lot of ongoing projects involving a lot of different applications, I cannot have a system that I cannot trust - reliability is paramount for me.

Oh yeah agree entirely, we've just specced up a new server for work, drive speed is paramount but as its a server so is disk reliability so its got 12 SAS drives in it instead.
Problem I've found with SSD vs Spinner is that when a spinner starts to die you get some warning, be it clicking or something else, with SSD's it just dies...
