I haven't had good luck with SSD's so far. They fail subtly; a file that was there yesterday suddenly isn't accessible any more.
I ran my email server on an SSD for a couple years, but I went back to a mechanical disk last year after I started getting strange I/O errors. Another machine that I set up to handle RBDS messages at a transmitter site died after six months; it now has a conventional disk too. A netbook I bought with an SSD failed after two years; I replaced the SSD and it's back working again... but for how long? So far the only machines with solid-state storage I haven't had problems with are SheevaPlugs.. and none of them are more than two years old yet. I wouldn't trust an SSD in a mission-critical machine.
