> Things will get outrageous soon with the advent of M.2 PCI SSDs on a x4
connection.

 

 

The speeds of m.2 on x4 do look amazing, but the prices and sizes of them
probably means that not many people will be tossing them into their
firewalls anytime soon. 

 

For projects like firewalls, and to act as server boot drives, I use 60GB
ssds that I find on sale. With 60, 120, etc. sata drives you get the latest
technologies. 

 

I've owned and installed almost every brand over the last few years, and
have only had one OCZ drive fail. The first two ssd's I purchased were 60GB
Vertex 2 drives that still work fine. 

 

Of course, you deal with far more of them than I do, but I trust SSDs as
much as hard drives.

 

By the way, I use zfs on several large arrays, and don't see why anyone is
against it. Guess I missed the discussion.
