This is exactly what I do. My archival system is based on YYYY/MM folders, and they all live on big ordinary redundant spinning-rust disks. But the current months and a couple previous live in <my-home-folder>/Pictures/Current which is an SSD, that’s where I import everything and that’s where 90%+ of the photo-editing happens.
