Any ide or sata drive should do. If you really want a SSD drive I recommend the Intel 320 series SSD drives. These have a capacitor inside which means it will survive a power failure gracefully. We have 12 of those in a raid 6 (LSI Sas HBA, external enclosure), and another few in a raid 10 (Dell R610). We also have another 10 or so in various laptops and desktops and have had zero issues yet. We are planning to upgrade about 35 more desktops with the 120GB variant and 350 cash registers with the 80GB variant. We have about 70 Dell Optiplex 790 desktops which ship with the Samsung 830 series SSD drives which appear to work well too. For reference, I have a Corsair P256 (Samsung OEM SSD) which is still working well in my laptop. That's from the looks of it from july 2009 so it's now over 2 years old.
