We have a smallish cluster (3 nodes, 30TB RAW storage) with 6 Intel dc S3500 120GB disks for journals. We have between 300-600Mbit of continuous incoming data and lose a 2-3 percent of lifetime per week. I would highly recommend to monitor this if you are not doing this already ;) Buying bigger SSDs will help because the writes are spread across more cells. So a 240GB drive should last 2x a 120GB drive. Cheers, Robert van Leeuwen
